Hello everyone,

So I need to change the name of this topic as my project started!  ;D

For some reasons the electronic ignition came back to life...

Now, it's running really poorly that was kind of expected. When I open the choke fully it dies, I guess it's too lean so I'll have to change the idling and main jets. I didn't make the baffle yet and I still didn't receive my new pods so I'll have to wait for this being done. I found it kind of unresponsive/delayed when twisting the throttle.

Also, it's kind of ticking on the top engine so I'll have to check those valves.

When I checked the spark, it wasn't huge either...

You can watch/ hear it below :

Let me know what you guys think
Thanks

Nurse Julie:
That top end ticking sounds like a leaky exhaust manifold gasket.

thomaspigeon:
That’s a good news, I’ve got a set of new ones!!

You can change the name of your thread.

Go to the first post and edit it there.
It won’t change on the existing replies but will on all future ones.

Steve
