no there is no timming involved in that, just an electrical pulse from the TCI unit. one wire of the coil is a ground(but is usually internally...
Exellent to see someone with a similar viewpoint, and some obvious knowledge that can contribute to the posted issue.. thats similar to where I...
Nice!! I was 50 bucks off... congrats man, glad you got it sold.
the soldering is further into the coil,its internal. not at the edge where it can be seen or where the wires goes in. yes thats a covering for...
The verry first step in that process is speciffically for that reason, "A chemical strip". A quality re chromer will do this step twice to ensure...

3 months old, and not one response..Hmm? @Timbox how this issue end for you/him?
Wow, I did not expect to see a 10k redline on that... cool little dude... does it vibrate like the xs650's do?
hey dave, whats the redline on that thing? and is it 4,5, or 6 speed?

so did you tear it out of the end of the coil?

Glen, you can cobble it all you want, its still a cobble...lol I would just replace it, its old as h e double hockey stix anyways. But glad...
yes this is normal....
nice little twin...

Its either a severe restriction of fuel, or the timming advance. How much of the cylinders were bored? .030,0.020?? when you enlarge the...
I had a feeling they may have a slightly smaller diameter. good call @hogfiddles, hope your able to help him out.
Thats exellent Glen!!! progress, one problem at a time!:)
If you had an "unmetered" air flow into the engine in any area, then the PCM and MAF will not register it, therefore it will not be getting any...
