OK.  Full tank of non-ethanol gas.  Replaced the fuel filter & fuel pump, 
cleaned the carb inlet screens and checked the float valves.  All new copper 
fuel lines about two years ago - SAME PROBLEM.

WHAT NOW ???

Gentlemen,

The BJ7 has been up on jack stands for about 2 months while I did transmission 
work. Upon completion, the engine was a little had to start, but finally 
started.  On the road test, the engine would not rev above 2,200 to 2,400 RPM - 
light bucking and missing.  I have checked ignition - dwell & timing and fuel 
seems OK.  Almost feels like the mechanical advance is stuck.  But I'm stalled. 
 Anyone had a similar problem ???
