back again after some hopeless purchases. I couldn't help myself getting a new stator via Jauce. https://www.jauce.com/auction/h1218235812 I've got it in my head that the problem is an electrical one and thought it would be great to at least take it out of suspicion even if the more educated would tell me it has nothing to do with the issue of only running on 1 cylinder....the rear one.
It even has an appropriate grommet..
swapping them out...
Getting ready to remove... the original coils.
...here they are....spoiler alert..these originals... aren't the problem...
with these other ones that arrived via Jauce...the problem is still there.
one has to wonder....is it the pick ups...or as they are decribed in the manual...Pulse Generators?
Good and Bad...just to remind me which one works and what doesn't. I've swapped out everything electrical apart from the pick ups which, let's be honest, they are probably fine....but has anyone had any issues? They do exist- but who knows if they work. https://www.jauce.com/auction/l1218608590
I think I'm resigned to the fact that it's a fueling issue so I think the next step is is to pull the carbs and take them to pieces, again, and also check the reeds while I'm in there.
To re-cap the front cylinder isn't kicking in....you can hear it trying at very low revs but it just won't catch. To be honest I've got nothing but time, so would consider sending the carbs off to a pro to go through them just in case I've been doing something wrong all along. it's quite possible. Whole thing is odd as for a very short and inconsistent time it ran on two.
Pretty sure I have the plumbing right.
In (brackets) is the stock jetting
Compression. Any compares?
Rear 120psi after 17 Kicks and throttle wide open- but engine is cold.
Front 115pssi after 17 Kicks and throttle wide open - but engine is cold.
