Hi Everyone. I'm borrowing this motor from a friend as a "try before you buy" deal. It appears to be misfiring throughout the RPM range.
I have four short youtube videos showing it in WOT, Mid range, Idling in gear, and idling at the dock. The motor kicks pretty hard when it does it at the high and mid range.
This '81 is actually new for me. It's the first non-points ignition that I've worked on, FYI.
I'd love to hear back on a) is this a misfire, and b) is there a recommended troubleshooting process besides buying and replacing parts?
Thanks,
Matt.
