Honda-SOHC

Hey,

So I spent a couple of hours on the bike today and I figured out a couple of things :
1) not all the spark plugs were firing, some were dead or even the wrong ones! Now I’m about to order some new ones but I’m not sure if I need to take some resisted one or not. I’ve put a photo of my plugs below
2) the electronic ignition was slightly off, apparently the mark F14 need to be aligned with the mark on the crankcase when the LED is switching on. If someone can confirm it needs to be the mark on the left of the F that would be great.
3) I’ve followed your topic to set up the float properly @Julie. Hopefully that will work and not overflow.

Looking forward to get it started!
Thanks for your help everyone

Thanks for your quick reply everyone! I'll have to try all of this tomorrow.

About the height of the float, how do you mesure it? Carb upside down with the float sitting on? It looks like the floats are getting stuck open very easily.

The previous owner took off the airbox and removed the brackets of the bike, so that will run on pods (I know, not ideal). I'm waiting for some K&Ns but I still have the previous cheap chinese pods, that should do for starting it.

I'll test the compression, and I'll have a look if I have a spark on all the plugs. I know that I have a spark on the cylinder #4. Also as I said, the engine should be a runner.

@nurse Julie , the little pod is to avoid the oil to get straight out I believe...

Thanks for you reply deltarider. I know it's black but for some reasons I've put it in orange. I can't follow a regular wiring diagram as I bypassed a lot of things like the starting motor safety unit, I also changed the reg and rec for a single reg/rec unit and I also changed the points for an electronic ignition system. That's why I ask for some external point of view about what I've done as it's not really standard
