Hi everyone,
Im new to the forum (and forums overall). My plan was to make my first post about the project from start to finnish, however i have now encountered an issue that i am having a hard time solving. After i solve this problem, keep an eye on the project board as i will be making a rather long and comprehensive post about my project there.
The issue: Sparks on plugs 2&3 are working fine and using a timing-light i was able to confirm that everything is fine here. Sparks on plugs 1&4 are happening at the wrong time, when looking at the timing-wheel plugs 1&4 are sparking when the wheel has turned about 45 degrees past the point where it should have sparked. I tried placing the timing wheel in the position where plugs 1&4 should spark and using a screwdriver between the two points (the nock on the axel and the brush on the timing wheel) got plugs 1&4 to spark at the correct time.
Things i have tried:
-Changing the wires between coils and condensers. Result: no change, cylinders 1&4 did not fire.
-i can confirm that the cylinders are getting fuel, compression and the exhaust pathways are clear.
-Further i can add that i have not made any changes to the valves or engine overall since the summer when i rode the bike before the project.
Some background to what changes have been made to the bike:
-CV-carbs replaced with Keihin Cr Specials
-Exhaust changed to a 4-1 exhaust.
-Electricals rebuilt to an M-unit based system, everything else electrical is working on the bike flawlessly.
-Changed the plugs to new ones.
The mystery for me is the fact that plugs 2&3 are working flawlessly, and since this is the case, there is to my knowledge no mechanical way to adjust the timing to fix this problem.
Thank you for any advice, and please feel free to ask any questions i have neglected to include in my post.
