Just a suggestion but I wouldn't jump all over the place checking "this" and "that" without confirming "this" first.
Not to beat a dead horse, but make sure you have "good" spark FIRST. Then move on. As I mentioned before, there is no need to by the spark tester right away (although it is a MUST tool to have for anyone working on small engines). Just use the spark plug with ground strap removed method. It takes seconds to test
I took off the plugs and adjusted the gaps. Middle cylinder had only 0,7 mm but that plug was in the right cylinder originally so I don't think the trouble is because of that.
Used the kickstart with my arm and locked carefully at the sparks. Left is blueish and stable. Middle and right are lighter in color and more "jumpy" and random. Probably a useless observation?
I have ordered new spark plugs anyway just to eliminate that factor.
ahhhhh!!! LOL!
The color says nothing, it is the gap it must jump without compression to show it will fire under compression. Does it jump a 1/4" gap? New plugs are worthless if it doesn't spark UNDER COMPRESSION.
Just trying to help
Can anyone else chime in to try to explain this concept? Or am I wrong in how to diagnose this. Been wrong too many times to count
I know when I was teaching classes, sometimes a particular instructor simply could not get the point to the student. When another instructor jumped in, it was like a light switch went on.
