Hi, my TLR (ever since I bought it off sandy) has had a mis fire at high revs , now then I have put up with it as it doesn't matter for trials. but I want to sort it

I have:

standard exhaust,

New plug,

Set the tappets and

Cleaned the carb.

And I even took the plate off to get to the fly wheel, now then I have a TLR manual and have set most things to there right setting.

You know under the fly wheel cover is there anything that can be adjusted under there that would cause a mis fire?

I also have a timing gun but haven't tried it yet as it needs to be dark for it to work.

If I use the timing gun and find that the TDC mark is not lining up when it is firing what do I adjust to get it to fire at TDC ?

I used to have the old TL 125s and they had points thus meaning that I knew how to sort them , but the TLR being a TLR has a bleeding ECU !

If any one can just say go look at page ... then please say

Ride safe.

dont touch anything to do with flywheel.a high speed misfire most likely not carb if it runs well otherwise,if it misfires in neutral at stand still try taking of ht cap get a mate with rubber grips on pliers to hold ht lead slightly away from end of plug say few mm start up bike and see if spark works ok when it misfires,if no misfire replace ht cap

I have just ordered new (standard) jets for the carb as the jetting was wrong (wrong as in not standard ), the needle setting was wrong, it was not at the standard place, it was set lower.

You also may want to try disconnecting the kill switch, it could be arching at high revs.

I have tryed that.

Did you get it fixed?

No , the smoke coming from the engine suggests it needs new piston rings, and a new cam chain , any one know if

I put new rings in it , it has more power and better responce but still has the problem with the miss fire. note it is not a BACKFIRE, so does any one has any ideas what it could be ?
