Normally, It idles at 800rpm... but its sitting at about 450rpm.
We put a timing chain in, and since then I presume I have to adjust the dizzy.. do I have to move it left or right? to get it back to the RPM speed.
Or do I have to adjust points??
Its running rough, but it does start and run

maybe u put the timing gears out a few deg, try to turn the dizzy clockwise if u think its out, but turn the idol screw up first or u might damage something

if it was good where the distributor is now, then there's no reason anything would need to be changed in that department...

turn the idle screws up and go for a drive - you might find it's well down on power, if that's the case, pull the motor out again and check the cam timing

Yeah we marked it when we pulled the little cog off and fitted the chain. So going to adjust the distributor tommorrow. It runs just pops and carries on.
