Years ago the way some racers set plugs was to start with a close gap, and make a run. Open up the gap .005 and make a run. Keep doing that till your time falls off. Go back down .005 to your last gap and run it there.
Another way that I have seen to put on a heat shield. Put a muffler clamp on a header tube near the starter, and then use the threads on the clamp to mount a shield.
Get the battery charged up, then hold the key in the start position and move the shift lever between park and neutral. Sometimes you can get some play in the linkage and the safety switch doesn't line up properly.
Are you sure the belt isn't slipping? They don't always squeal. Run the engine at a fast idle for a minute, shut it off, then carefully touch the alternator pully. If it is hot, the belts is slipping. The belt should be flush or above the edges of the pulley. If it is lower, the belt is worn out.
