Hello
the year is 2020, the gas you buy today requires a 195 degree thermostat or it does not burn efficiently. 210 is not hot! 195-210 is normal 240 is hot.
The engine tune up is way off, initial timing needs to be 12-15 degrees btdc to start
I just tried to adjust the timing to 12 to 15 but I can only see the timing mark to 10. I guess I'm not used to using a gauge with numbers. I thought when you get close to 220 it was hot.
