Ok--checked my Haynes and my Norton manual and it was me misreading on the exhaust valve clearance... .008 it is.No change with leaning the air screw on RH carb.Swapped LH carb to the RH side, leaving the carb off and plug out on the LH cyl. Got an occasional pop but it never caught. I think the pop was the sporadic sound I heard when the bike was running.Swapped plugs and leads, confirmed spark all ways.Also re checked the pilot circuit and jet on the RH carb; seemed fine.Confirmed the carbs are the correct stock models (and originals...now resleeved...)Guessing re-timing is my best option now, just to be sure.
