The leak is right at the gasket between the head and the manifold. I just reset the points, They we off (to close) I set them to .025. I didn't mess with the timing yet. Started right up and went out to the dirt pile, which is now frozen. I was able to push good and hard with a hefty load on the engine. It would stain like normal, even kind of forcing it. It never died. When to turn around and go back to the garage and it died. Took a while to start it, and kept heading back. about 30 seconds later it died, just going straight. did that about 3 times, and harder to start. Hmmmm. I really appreciate the help you guys give Thanks
