Re: Engine won't start when it's Hot.
I can see now why you want to retain that ignition setup you have....

Re: Engine won't start when it's Hot.
Are you using solid, stranded wire, core spark plug wire or something else like resistor?

Re: Engine won't start when it's Hot.
Great looking engine. Should perform well. The coils - did you put covers on them or did they come with the checkered colors?

Re: Engine won't start when it's Hot.
Did it get fixed? What was the problem?

Re: Engine won't start when it's Hot.
We're not exactly sure. We went though the entire ign system, testing all the units and connections that might be causing the problem and eliminating those that were't. In the process we finally we're able to obtain fire at the plugs, which is of course what we were looking for. I don't think that it was one single item , but a combination of things, put together by the builder.! If We knew, we could probably write a book on the subject The good news, is that I' am able to keep my "H&C" ignition system, which is and was my primary concern.!
We are now focused on the fuel system, (which includes finding decent fuel to burn), and I think that we have that solved also. Tomorrow is test Day.! |
