June 22, 200521 yr Cota, regarding the weak spark, check your ht lead from the spark plug cap to the coil. Seem to recall my mates sons 02 Sherco ht lead either being trapped between the rad and the frame and causing chaffing of the lead which lead to a weak spark or it may have been the fan blade gouging the cable when coming on. Sorry can't be more precise but it was a couple of years ago and just remembered about it. Just thought it may be worth checking yours. I think it still ran but made a clicking noise and was a pain to start!
June 22, 200521 yr It has got a lot warmer in the last four weeks causing the mixture to weaken. I think you have got mixed up with that one, hot air is less dense causing the mixture to richen not weaken.
June 23, 200521 yr Humble apologies all round. Many thanks Chris, you are right. I was trying to show that maybe the difference in air temperature was effecting Cotas bike, however got a bit confused in my explanation. Does sound like it is a weak spark that is at fault.
June 24, 200521 yr Author John B, you sly old devil. I didn't reaised you'd won Clubman B and after such a long lay off. Well done!
