static timing 1-4 always on
« on: May 09, 2015, 09:40:02 am »
74 cb750k.  Home made wiring harness, hondaman ignition.  Worked fine previously. 
I'm trying to set my static timing and 1-4 are always on, while 2-3 never come on.  I guess I have a short somewhere.  Anybody had this problem?

I noticed a lot of feeler gauges come oiled and I keep them that way. So before I check point gaps I always clean them off with carb cleaner.
