need help/advice on 1976 cb550 electrical problem
« on: June 18, 2018, 10:38:38 AM »
Hi All,

my son's 1976 CB550 has new:
ignition coils, wires, caps, points, condensors, spark plugs, fuel filters , the points & spark plugs
are correctly gapped.
IT seems to me that the sparking here is excessive. All 4 cyclinders are fireing OR seem to be
doing so properly.


any suggestions? :-[

Figured it out with help from here. A New condensor was bad and the blue lead from that condenser was also too close to the backing plate.  Thanks all. Bike runs great now.
