Timing problems on the 450 Bomber
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
This might be irrelevant but.....
At the start of your thread you mention a blue light for left & green light for right in your photo it looks like a green wire going to the left side sensor or am I colour blind?
mo goldie:
well I said that they are around the 0.40 mark so hope they are ok Ash. oh I can get a set at £35 if they are No good off Ebay but do I take a chance ?
Yes roy i did email them 3 days ago but someone told me they are on a thanksgiving hols so might be why I have Not had anything back from them yet so hope they will get back soon.
and yes as long as I can get a spark at least yes I should be able to get it to run and do what you say with the timing light.
if you look at the picture you can just see the blue wire is indeed just visible on the left side and the that is the green coming out of the right side.
Oh just got some so Ha ho More Money but mrs said go for it ..... Oh she a keeper ha lol

Not easy to measure the primary coil resistance without a decent multimeter capable of measuring very low resistance Mo. Make sure you are on 100 Ohms range when measuring !
Be very wary of aftermarket coils .. some have very low primary resistance .. ideally you need 5 ish Ohm coils.
mo goldie:
yes I am taken a chance I know but don't know where to get a set from that will be good ?
I have a fluke meter that measure auto ....... I think any suggestions on where to get good coils from ?
mo goldie:
oh when they get here.... Ash
my first job will be to check them out to see what they read......if Not good they do take returns so that's good........ but like you say 5.0 is better that's what them at Common Motors say to use.
