In this edition of “If It’s Not Broken I’ll Fix It Until It Is”:
Took the bike down to remove the primary to replace transmission and crank seals, put a timing wheel on to check the accuracy of the timing marks (they were good).
At first I had some pops but couldn’t get it started.
New battery 13v
New rotor and stator
Good compression
Mikuni with same settings when it was running
Timed at 31 degrees with rotor flat and the mark in the anti-clockwise hole.
13v at coil and jumped negative battery post to Boyer white wire.
Have spark on both cylinders when grounded on kicking over, turning on ignition, and when scratching the black/white and black/yellow (red this might not happen but can sometimes?)
Absolutely nothing when trying to start. No pop… nothing.
Pulled the carb just to make sure the idle circuit was clear and the slide was shut
Is it possible the Boyer box can be fried and sending bad signals?
Pretty frustrated. Set of amals and points sitting on the bench is my next step if you gents don’t have any better ideas.
Compression, fuel, spark, right?
Any ideas? As per usual I feel like I’m missing something simple.
