hmmmm, so here's a bit of a puzzle.
I couldn't get the leads to budge from the coil so I simply plugged the front lead to the rear cylinder. It worked fine on the rear cylinder with the front plug removed.
I installed the front plug and NO GO
I plugged the rear lead into the front cylinder (VIA a home made extension lead). Plenty of bright blue spark but NO GO
I removed the rear plug and left the front plug in play powered by the rear lead. NO GO.
I tested for spark and found that the front lead would only spark when the rear lead was attached to a plug and was sparking against the body. When it wasn't I would get no spark from the front lead (irrespective of what cylinder it was plugged into and visa versa.
At this point I am pretty confident that my problem is now NOT the coil but either the carby flooding the front cylinder (Unlikely) or something inside the front cylinder that is sucking too much fuel through. As compression is OK and not too high or too low on both cylinders I don't see it being the rings or the decompression valve. What else could I be facing?
Is there something on the inlet manifold that directs fuel flow??? I am completely lost now. This machine has me stumped but I WILL NOT LOSE! I will not be beaten by this thing. Regardless of how much it wants to be scrapped!
Thanks in advance for any help!
Pete.
