57 150 series w 235 engine need quick tune up tips. Looking for efficient way you diagnose and quick remedy the tune up process.

I've adjusted my distributor timing, but need to go to the next step of the tune up. Do I just go out and purchase points, and distribute cap as the quick way?

What's your opinion on the grade of oil? Is it correct to go with 5w...

Thanks again,
Tim

Many thanks, yes it was rebuilt. It seems to be running rough. But much better since fixing the holding bolt for the distributor.

I never thought of checking the fuel filter since it was off the road for many years. Great idea. Will advise..

Thanks again,
