Not firing......need advice

Post by linemup » Mon Oct 31, 2011 11:02 am

Initially got bike to crank after 40 years. Ran for about 30 seconds......now, i have no spark at the plugs. Any ideas are welcome. You guys know the ins and outs of these bikes more that I.

First thing I would check is to make sure the plugs and points are clean. Are the plugs new?
