    Thanks. I took it apart before I saw your response. The top comes off and there is a small screen inside, but no debris on the screen. I got a new pump anyway and it is working well.

    So get a new distributor, a cap and rotor assembly, new plug lines, etc? New plugs will be here in a few days. Is it damaging the engine to have it retarded and running poorly? Thanks
