Engine still not running right

I replaced the push rods and adjusted them perfectly. I am still getting an inconsistant misfire. Its running a little off.

I am thinking the S&S carb might have to be rebuilt or the timing is off. It doesnt seem to get a good stream of fuel or the timing is off. I tried adjusting the timing by siund. I am picking up a timing light tomorrow.

Any insight into setting the timing on the bike. The manual is very vauge. I think I am buying the Clamers version. The HD shop manual does tno have enough photos of what I am supposed to be looking at.

Also any insight into tuning the carb?

Thanks again guys.

S&S Technical Instruction Sheets go to the Search tab and select carburators, then when the list appears Select Super E & G

Click to download the manual in PDF format for the SuperE

It has detailed instructions on setup, install and tuning.
