I set idle at 6 degrees BTDC. It idled fine there. I took it out for another drive and this time the choke rod came loose (I must’ve knocked that tiny little clip off) and the choke rod got jammed on what I think is the fast idle cam and held it open. Idle was way too fast and it heated up again. You could also tell it was running too lean. I didn’t realize this until I got her back to the garage. I’m calling it quits fir the day.

The brown lever below was jammed by the choke rod. .




Not sure if you can see how it got twisted here.
