BansheeBrian Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Just recieved a Rickystator stator and timing plate.I adjusted the timing plate to the mark -0- is where the cases meet,at the split. I try firing it up and It's way off the mark.I have a fresh top end and don't want to botch it up. Should that -0- mark be in a different spot? I was thinking it should be at or above the casting "tab" on the upper case. This isn't cool.I'm almost ready to ride again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledofthezep Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Here ya go...sounds like you're on the right track. Did you adjust the pickup coil? I have the same plate, advanced mine +4 & won't go back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BansheeBrian Posted April 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 I'm working on this right now.I did not mess with the coil.I didn't think it needed to.The firing was crap when i kicked her.Maybe I'll advance it slightly and see what happens.Be right back.... I'm treating the forum like it's chat n' shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledofthezep Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Haha,...same thing I was doing when I ran into problems. Just make sure that you adjust the pickup coil. I had to adjust mine, I 1st forgot, and it was hitting the pickup coils on the flywheel & wouldn't fire for shit. Adjusted the pickup coil & shee was all better. Luckily I found what I had done before I hosed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind I just read another post....... .015 to .025 is the gap....Some reason I was thinking .030ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nater006 Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Yup, .015-.025. That timing hash should be even with the case line down the middle. Yours a tight fit, also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BansheeBrian Posted April 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Got it solved. I tell you one thing that plate is a tight as hell fit over the crank where it seats.Geez!. It sparks right on schedule but still runs terrible.On cold start when i push in the choke all the way in it wants to die but when i leave it at half choke it smokes a bit but still runs.wonder if 2 1/2- 3 week old fuel has anything to do with it?My comp. is at 156. Man,going from one thing to the next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotts96fast Posted April 8, 2004 Report Share Posted April 8, 2004 Yep,mine fit really tight also...I didn't grind anything just put the plate on strait...It was a bitc* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BansheeBrian Posted April 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2004 Before the timing plate it didnt run too good because of bad/broken rings.Now there is a strong spark and it wants to run but has trouble when i push the choke in when warming it up.It cuts out when the choke is in.My tubes are there,the slides are right,jetting should be there,fuel is getting delivered. I do notice fuel leaking out of my left carb though....Hmmmm. I did remove a bunch of TORS wires and maybe I got a little happy with the snips and cut something important or something needs to be grounded. Aggrevated..

ledofthezep Posted April 8, 2004 Report Share Posted April 8, 2004 Well chit. I'd double check the carbs, what you mentioned, uhhhhhh air filter clean? Checked the coil yet? uhhhhhhh surely some peeps can think of some more things to check. Have you traced your wiring around where ya got snip happy?hehe Not trying to be captain obvious, but ya never know... Keep a search'n, you'll get it right. I think we've all been there a time or two ourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotts96fast Posted April 8, 2004 Report Share Posted April 8, 2004 Did you pressure test the motor after rebuild? What do ya mean that the jetting should be there?Any other mods besides the timming plate when you rebuilt the motor??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BansheeBrian Posted April 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 I just did a simple rebuild with wiseco's. I think I cut some important wires though when i tried to rid my shee of TORS wires.Now it wants to run but will crap out when i touch the throttle.I eliminated the TORS wires that go to the throttle and the front brakes. I also cut the TORS wires that lead to the carb tops.Something is telling the shee not to rev. I have been troubleshooting this for a while and for the life of me can't figure it out.Next weekend i have a big ride and I'm stuck with this. Yep! I'm bitchin'!
