Well, I'll reserve my opinion, until you have a pix that shows the General in full jump, but I doesn't have to be a cop car.

thanks for the info and It don't need a blower haha . but right now it has some mechanical problems It needs a head and a head gasket, probely needs a coil because it one runs on one cylinder most of the time. but when the motor is running the carburetor tends to make a pop/backfiring noise and when it does that the other cylinder seems to fire again. so I don't know what the issue is if its either timing, coil, or the jet screws on the carburetor. but out of curiosity can someone tell me how to set the jet screws on the carb there are two gold colored ones. thanks

the lowest(closest to the int. manif. mounting) mixture adjustment screw is for the idle mixture only, it sets at 1.5 turns out from being closed. The high speed mixture screw is the other one, it also sets at 1.5 turns out from being closed. (when you close either of those mixture screws, close them very lightly, as not to damage the needle tip or the seat it mates to.

When adjusting the idle mixture, you probably need to hold the throttle lever against the idle speed screw, otherwise the governor action may interfere with your adjustment.

It could be a coil, but try a couple new plugs first....just for fun.
