I've set the dwell. I've set the timing (another email to follow), I've set
the valves. I've rebuilt the carbs again, and leaned them out so the exhaust
doesn't make my eyes burn. But I've still got a hesitation / roughness as I
accelerate, especially around 2000 rpm.
The mixture seems to be right since the idle doesn't run up when I lift the
piston.  The carbs are balanced.

The only other thing I've noticed is that the timing light doesn't run 100%
when I pull the trigger. It seems that the #1 spark plug isn't firing all the
time.

Could this be electrical? The coil is new, the points well gapped. Could it be
the condensor? What would the symptoms be for a bad condensor?

I'm sort of stuck here. HELP??!!!!
