[T3] Spent some time with the Crate...

[Dave Hall]

The last time I noticed that effect was on Jim's '69, and the glass was in
back-to-front. 

ISTR from our long departed (probably) 1500S, the speedo started from 10
mph.

Set the points gap, set the timing to 10BTDC, sync'd the carbs, cleaned the
plugs, checked the wires, cap and rotor..  Still hates starting hot.
Sometimes it cranks slow, sometimes not, when it does start it runs fine
although there is an intermittent miss. I think the left carb may have a
leaky float seat, I need to check that out.

Anybody else notice that the hash marks on the 100MPH S speedos (64-5 only)
don't line up with the MPH readings?
