Yet another video... 

It seemed my B-33 was running slower once I had it together but then at other times it was running a bit faster.  I keep scratching my head wondering what was up.  So I decided to remove the magnetic coil cover (cylinder facade) and instantly saw the pin keeping the shaft connected to the paddles had come loose. This pin was dragging/scrapping the inside of the cylinder facade slowing the engine down!



My new cloth AC cords are on their way, they'll likely should show up early next week :-)
