  4. Many thanks again Jimbo! Seems to be wired up as you have said, only one wire from the stop button that is connected to the black anyway. The switch earths through the strap to the handlebar. Waiting for the sparkplugs, will gap and use new fuel, and maybe blow the needle valves out in the carb! Thanks for you time, its been really appreciated Regards, Andy
  5. Many thanks Ian, e-mail address is swifts57@tiscali.co.uk Please can you mark subject as Montesa Manual Thanks again Andy
  6. Many thanks for that information!! May need somemore help with the electic loop hope you can help? The main loom that comes from the bottom end has a pink, yellow, black and green cable that goes into a female conection block. The black cable has a return black connection, the green has a green return connection. The pink has a seperate female connection spade and the yellow just goes into the large female block. From the two wires remaining do you know which wire goes to the condensor and which to the dead man switch, i have a choice or green, black and the spare pink one? Sorry for all the questions, need to sort it out Many thanks again! Andy
  7. Hi James! Many thanks for your fast reply, so a Cota 200. 175HP, i didnt know! There is a spark at the plug but it dosnt bridge between the core and tip, will only spark from the external body to the bike body, thats why I know it needs a new plug. What plug do you run yours on? Also have some issues with the wiring loop end, not sure whats meant to be running from what?, any help would be very much apprieciated!! Thanks Andy
  8. I acquired this bike some 7 years ago from a very good friend who said, get it going and its yours for your son to ride it when hes old enough to. I did but my friend was tradicly killed 6 months later in a bike accident. I ran the bike for a couple of years after that, replaced the points and plug but then its been in storage for some years and I am struggling to start it.The condensor has been checked and is ok. I dont know exactly what model it is, or the engine size. The engine number shows 29MO2718** the ** may be only scratches and not part of the serial number. I want to restore the bike back to its original condition as I promised this to my son who is now big enough to ride it. I want to start with some billy basics ie, plug? what do i use and what is the gapping, also dos anyone know the gapping for the points so i can try that, The model and cc would also be appreciated Thank you!! Andy
