sheeblue01 Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 I just had my engine rebuilt by Jim at Passion.. I set it back in the frame hooked everything up and when I start it, It only fires on the left cylinder. I have switched the plug wires, switched the coil out, and it still only fires on the left side. When I pull the plugs and kick it over both plugs seem to be firing. I am lost, any ideas guys? Quote

Where at out of the cylinder? It has run for maybe a total of 2 minutes so far.. Just long enough for me to start it and realize that it is only running on one cylinder and shut it off. I am sofa king confused on what it could be. The only thing that comes to mind is that my stator isn't putting out enough juice to provide strong enough spark for both cylinders. Quote
fastbanshee8 Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 Check the gap between the flywheel, and the pick up coil. You should be able to fit a match book cover in between them. Quote
sheeblue01 Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Posted June 30, 2008 I got it fixed! I just had to evict a family of mice that had taken refuge in my pipe. I couldnt even blow all the shit out with an air compressor because they had it packed so tight. I ended up pouring some gas in it an dropping a match inside. PROBLEM SOLVED! Quote
