***UPDATE***

Okay, I did the Seafoam down the carb to clean the possible carbon build up on the valves.

It runs "ok" at about 55-60mph, BUT... it spits and sputters at lower RPM range 1000-1500RPM... AND... it won't idle in gear, it dies.

I'm gonna check the compression on #1 again, and mess with the timing, although I've already messed with the timing a LOT, and it never seems to fix this issue.
