Very bad running.

<< < (6/7) > >>

Bryanj:
Clean the contact faces with a diamong file DO NOT use sandpaperas the grains are actually glass and will act as an insulator

Bradders:
Thank you Bryanj, I will try that next.

Bradders:
Evening, have fitted my spare points to my bike after giving them a thorough clean with a file, also reset the points and re set the timing. The bike bike starts well and runs much better but sadly the points are still arcing. Any suggestions what I could try next?  Thanks.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
If you switch the coil for 1 & 4 with 2 & 3 does the arcing issue  move to 1 & 4?
 
Are the LT wires & connections  between points & coil all in good condition?

Bryanj:
You will always get some arcing, depends on intensity and colour, if the condenser was bad the running would be off
