I got my question answered from http://www.cncengines.com/ where I bought the Hall Effect tester and timing setup. He recommends 28 BTDC. This is set just as the tester buzzer and light goes OFF.

After 2 gallons of Lawn Boy the rpm at full throttle seemed off. Checking the carb I saw that the carb insulator does not give a smooth transition to the engine. I am working on that and will post results with a 19x10 prop later. Can't use a 20x10 right now since I am breaking in the engine on a Giant Scale Big Stick.

No problems with the Melody ignition so far. BTW using an Ignition Battery Eliminator Circuit. So far no interference with the FASST receiver.

Yep carb insulator and plated manifold need to see a Dremel.

Also no problems with Melody, but I always solder an additional ground wire between box/braid and motor.
