A little "Butch Wax" would probably smooth things over and the bearing would appreciate it ! RB |

Yesterday I tested all the spark plugs - set the multimeter at 2000 ohms - they all tested out between 1050 and 1350 ohms. The loose wire at the mag turned out to be the ground wire from the P-lead shielding to the mag case screw (slick mag). it was hanging on by 2 strands to the P-lead shielding - Once determined and fixed, all comms back to normal. All in all a good exercise as I became more comfy with the charging, electrical and ignition system. Thanks for all the advice! |

The "edit" button seems to have disappeared.....I should add to the above that Bruce had it right about the P-Leads....and the admittedly poor excuse I have for not having seen it sooner, is that it was the right mag and the P-lead and ground connx's are on the underside and difficult to see in the sea of udder stuff that exists in proximity.....and it was dark,......and I was tired.....and hungry,.....and thirsty for barley pop............REALLY thirsty!! |
