Timing

(1/2) > >>

Robbo:
Have really enjoyed riding my naked PRR around in the sunshine, although when I set the timing with a strobe 1-4 were perfect but 2-3 bounced all over the place. Points and condenser are both quite new. Not sure what else could cause it, although 2-3 coil is a new aftermarket one which is a little smaller than the original, could this be the problem?

It pops when cold, usually on tickover or deceleration, I put that down to my unbaffled motad 4-1, I have overwelded any holes in the pipes though and when I use my hand or wire will as a temp baffle it still pops.

Shall I try new points/condenser? Is the coil the culprit - how do I tell?

Bryanj:
Throw away the strobe abd time it static as per the Manual, never used a strobe in all the years at dealers---only to check the advancer was working!

Robbo:
Still popping when static timed

Bryanj:
Most likely an air leak

Robbo:
No change when I spray wd40 on the inlet rubbers, any other way I can tell if there is a leak?
