Thats the problem. The "old school way", wasn't a way at all. You're going to have no idea what your air/fuel's are, nothing to mess with timing, etc, etc, etc.... I could keep going but hopefully you get the point. If you want it to have any kind of reliability or have any kind of power, you need to re-think the setup. It may run the way you want to set it up, but it will not run good and it will not run for long. Sorry.
