Billy C. must be smiling upon me and my garage because I have made some good progress with the fleet lately. The Durant is running better than ever.
Is there a recommended speed to set the idle? After adjusting the valves and fiddling with the mixture it is running at 700 rpm with no adjustment to the idle speed. It runs nicely, but seems pretty fast.
It is the Durant M2 with the Continental 4, but has a model A carb on it.
Any suggestions?
Thank you,

Thank you Rick. I have it set at 600 and it is running nicely and dependably with out any stall or stutter. the timing seems to be a bit before TDC so I will have to make sure it is not too advanced for real driving. When I adjust it towards TDC it doesn't run as nicely. I thought TDC was the suggested setting, but a lot has changed since 1928.
I hope all is well for everyone on the road in their Durants.
