Set Ign timing but no spark
« on: 01.11. 2017 19:08 »
Ive just had my mag overhauled by Andrew at Priory and set the timing today but ended up with the right hand plug with no spark (swapped plug and its fine on LH lead)
Only thing in timing  process i didnt  quite  get was the lead closest to the points heel? goes to the left hand cylinder.
Thanks in advance  for any help.

Swap the leads at the mag to take the lead and plug cap out of the equation.
