Timing For T110/t120

Thanks got message. Have been away. Update is I did the float bowl levels again just to check as a poster raised it and I thought I will check I have done it right.
Bike still only firing on one side, other side is intermittent. On Monday it stopped firing all together. Have sent the pickup and coil back to supplier for testing as that has to be where the fault is.

 

Tried that one. No change

 

One of the few places no helicoil on the engine

 

Sadly other bike up north in storage so can’t get access. Have sent the parts back. Awaiting them to test them and see what happens. It’s a pain because I have been asked to exhibit the bike at the Dorset Steam Fair and I need a runner . Time is a ticking to get it sorted and do a full shake down before the show as the bike has had a major overhaul.

 

Hi
I have an update. Finally have a working bike. As the thread suggests not much I haven’t tried. The other day clinched it finally. Ran the bike and timing side exhaust cold so not running. Left side normal, but naturally bike running terrible. Took plugs out and spark on both plugs with petrol on the timing side. Bought some iridium plugs and hey presto problem sorted. Bike running a dream and timed up. It would appear the plugs were failing under compression. Put 4new plugs in this bike and same problem. Changed plug spec and it appears sorted. It has taken nearly 2 months and many frustrated hours. Knew it had to be something simple and I think I have tried everything available. Have even put a new wiring loom in and soldered every joint. I suppose the bike and my knowledge the better for the experience. Now I can ride it it’s damn raining.
Thanks to all those who had an input.

 

They were B8ES which were in the handbook and recommended. No doubt loads of posts say how great they are. Cleaned a new plugs still caused problem. I am sure your right about iridium plugs, but st least I now know what the problem is.
