67.85.83.70
Had the same problem... Hard start when hot... MY problem diagnosis was lack of fuel to carb... replaced rubber lines, added check valve... finally had to replace the fuel pump. Problem solved!!!! Check for fuel when hot before other problems.
Also found timing was way advanced and when set back closer to specs... hard starting/slow turnover cured.
Good luck
Mitch
