I've been working on this machine for the past couple of weeks and cannot seem to figure out what is going on with this machine.
If I try to run this thing in full throttle it is like the choke is on, blowing black smoke and if I can get the video to load here you hear it popping etc.
Things that I have done so far.
Cleaned and replaced internals in this Nikki carb, and I mean cleaned multiple times and there are no blockages and it doesn't have the famous Nikki leak.
Replaced the head gasket and cleaned up the valves. Getting 120 on compression test and no leaks.
Adjusted the valves.
Thought maybe I had a sheared flywheel key. Pulled the bolt out and everything is lined up as it should be.
I'm wondering now if maybe I have an ignition that is possibly going bad.
Video file is too large to load.
Any ideas?
