hi spent another 2hrs with a elecrician double checked everything turns out one of the new coils is faulty bugger wasted about 8hrs now will get replacement let you know how that works

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Might help others if you name the coil brand you used so we can steer clear unless it's definitely a one off.

sorry for late reply just got coils off site on e bay he changed them for different make did not have a name on others.
bike runs starts ok now but i have a misfire at 4000 revs and above no 4 plug gets really sooty i have stripped carbs again found all brass ware to floats wer all miss shapen so straightened them all out set floats at 22mm changed plugs round no4 is still the same obviously rich but cant fathom why needle set at 3 as in manual also when running come to a halt it can be ticking over from normal up to 3000 carbs are returning back to original place every time so fuel getting in somewhere when throttle closed ?
any ideas thanks

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Worth reading the post on/thread about hanging throttle started by Nigel (K2-K6).
The thread has had over a thousand reads in quite a short period !
