Jp southwick 1 #1 Posted May 19, 2016 I try timing the points with the static method I'm not sure if I'm doing it right because I'm getting a very inconsistent spark any thoughts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 14,932 #2 Posted May 19, 2016 If you are doing the static timing according to the tutorial listed here on the forum, then I would try a new spark plug first, new spark plug wire next, new condenser, and lastly a new coil. http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=87359 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 14,932 #4 Posted May 19, 2016 I assumed that he was working with new or good points, but you never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jp southwick 1 #5 Posted May 20, 2016 I installed new points but I've been messing around so much with them I might need to clean them. what is best way to clean? I'll try a new plug also. the coil is new but I haven't touched the condenser yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,172 #6 Posted May 21, 2016 Ideally a points file...but a new $1 bill also works (Currency paper has a slight abrasiveness to it). New because you don't want finger oils/dirt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
