My buggy only runnin on 2 cylinders. Firing are cylinders 2 & 3 Not running are 1 & 4 . When i first started it was only 1 not firing...???? switched plugs around didnt change anything. valves are good. switched plug wires around, no change. I cleaned the carb on that side just to be sure, no change. I did nothing on the opposite side then 4 fell off and isnt firing. This sucks. Distributor? Im running the electronic ignition, But if that went bad nothing would fire correct? |

Check the distributor cap to see if there is any tracking between the terminals. |

I would go back to the basics and worry about one at a time.. Check for Spark, fuel and compression.. Was it running fine and then just started running bad or did it just sit all winter and you are just starting it? |

MM, Ive had it out riding 3 times already this year. I had 041 heads on it that have had a lot of work done to them...I was able to get a set of 044's so I put them on along with 1.25 rockers. Since Ive done that swap, maybe 2 weeks ago.. I have found it impossible to get it too run as smoothly as Id like. And correct 1 and 4 are complete opposites of each other. lol I was thinking electrical problem because of that. Not sure exactly what fixed it as I threw every spare part i had at it, cleaned the carb on the #1 side, switched plugs around etc. and it solved the mystery |
