Not backfiring as much if I punch it when the revs are up. As the timing advances at higher rpm so should I advance the timing more. Was at 14 btdc when I got it.
I dont understand what out of phase cap means. Does it mean they are not lined up to where the button should be when firing?

If the engine is running properly and doesn,t backfire under normal,accelleration I would discount a timing issue. You have either an ignition supply problem in either coil or leads or spark plugs. You say the carb is a reco,but is the accelerater pump giving a good squirt of fuel when you open the throttle. Easy to check,just look down the carb while you operate throttle manually without engine running.
