Pooch&SteveTHANKU!
« on: October 15, 2011, 04:00:41 PM »
Incase you missed the end of the Engine saga we had posted on here for the last nearly 2weeks need help ,tday steve found the problem/S!.....YAAAAAAAY!
Im so haapy to be in such a GREAT club of such helpful Beddy members,everyone on here ALWAYS helps out everyone and for me that brings back faith in human kind! Nice to see these days! ;D
Thanks for everyone's suggestions&Concerns,especially to MATTE, steve said ,thanku!
Love Shell(Poochimama)
&
My Brother Steve&his padded cell!  :-\

This is what the problem/S where if you wanted to know?
1)Amazingly discovered a mix up in the dizzy parts,and it was running with the wrong rotor button.
It had a 1/4" gap between the button and the contact points inside the dizzy cap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ???
This explain the weak spark,LOL!
Put in a new button and guess what..It still ran like shit.
2) Then found a hissing noise from under the carb insulator plate!
The carbi bloke said to put it on the opposite way to the way i originally had it.
Turns out this exposed a slot in the plate and instant air vacuum leak!
So i went back to the way i had it originally weeks ago AND GUESS WHAT ..NO MORE AIR LEAK!
Its now running smooth ;D I just need to time it accurately with a timing light.
3) Im now looking at the pcv value,it could be sticking???
HUGE THANKYOU TO BUGAS THAT JUMPED IN TO HELP US,....REALLY APPRECIATE IT!
Cheer Steve ...
" I need a beer to bloody celebrate,and adopt my sister to another family,lol"
