bmfx1 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Hey guys, I just put my engine together and found out it had no spark. After checking all the electrical components and finding they were all good, I hit the throttle while kicking and I would get spark. Is this normal? I have a single carb setup with what looks like the factory thumb throttle. Do I need to cut the wiring coming out of this thumb throttle and connect them together to get rid of the throttle switches? Or is there something else I need to do? My engine runs good, just doesn't like to idle very well at the moment. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a black box, UN plug it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great idea in theory, but in real world it usually fails and causes a whole bunch of What the F's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
