[QUOTE="Blade1413, post: 21759, member: 22416"] Hopefully i'll work on this bike this weekend.. Thanks for the posts guys.. I was getting a spark before but for some reason i wasn't getting a spark on my left side lately.. I replaced the kill switch assembly and am not getting a spark at all anymore.. i have to check my wiring completely this weekend.. For the carbs, I have cleaned them out very well and the gas tank seems to be in good condition.. have cleaned it out and doesn't seem to have any loose rust in it.. I am worried about the cam time being off because my manual was not very specific in placing the darn thing back in there. But i assumed that everything was good when it had good conpression and started right up off of my first kick when i first got it back together.. My fist problem was that i did not have the bolt and washer holding the spark arrestor in place so it would only run for a short time and would not respond to throttle unless applied very slowly.. my guess for that is that the diaphrams were cracked and the choke was fully engaged.. I have soaked the carbs in a tank of carb cleaner and i have used compressed air on the things but i have not pulled the jets out.. guess i will have to do that.. one last thing.. do you think it could be my spark advancer (the springs being worn out?) they don't seem worn out to me but i'm not an expert and don't have any experience with that type of thing.. One last thing that has been pointed out to me is that if the points spark at all then the condensor is bad.. is this true? because i would use this small spark to give me a good way of setting the timing, i would also use the spark plugs and their spark.. is this a bad idea.. should i go ahead and set up a test light? Well i hope i get this thing running and on the road.. it will be my first streetbike.. i have been riding dirt bikes a long time and have also passed the msf course so the only thing left is to get this bike running! One last thing.. i have modified the airbox by modifying and Glueing K&N air filter where the old filter was.. I thought this might cause the choke being on but would it affect it that much? will i have to rejet because of this?
