Default Electronic ignition conversion kit

Regarding the timing guage I went and looked at a new one so I now
know where the timing should be. I also replaced all of those parts
like the coil but that didn't make a difference so I kept looking for
the problem. I then rebuilt the carburetor which made it run much
better but didn't fix the problem. Then I cleaned the engine grounds
and that fixed the problem. I guess the heat was affecting the ground
which is why it would die and not start, then start up fine in the
morning. Also I guess the reason changing the timing helped to get it
started was because it was making a better ground with the
distributor. Thanks everyone for helping me.
