All I did to tune it up was pull all of the spark plugs out, gap them, and reinstalled them according to specs on the air filter cover (0.045 -- most of them were at this point anyways) replaced the spark plug cables, cleaned up the distributer (the timing and order is correct, I am 100% sure of it) and installed a new air filter. I did run the tank totally dry of gas, and thinking it was a carburator problem I pulled the fuel intake on it to check if the fuel pump quit or something similar. I didn't do anything to the choke, or adjust the carb at all, minus adjusting the idle a bit.

That was P.O.D's song Coming Back in the background.
