So installation all done. She has never started SOOOO good! Set the base timing and purrs like a kitten. I'll put her in the water tomorrow for the true test. Final update to come!

OK. Did the water test. Wouldn't idle or run well in the water. Brought out and back to the house and hooked her up on the hose. Just before I did, while she is still warm from being on the water, remove the flame arrester to discover the butterfly is stuck closed. This is the summer of never ending issues!!! Got it open and now runs great. Discovered at the same time that one of the bolts holding the starter snapped. Ordering new bolts. Good thing I like to tinker....
