I'm sure this has been beat to death here, please forgive me!
My Classic 50 appears to be running on 2 cylinders. Very little power on the water. When doing the drop cylinder test on 1&2, RPMs do not change. Timing light visibly drops out when connected to #1 at lower speeds. Appears fine at higher RPM. Strangely though, the light appears to be on almost continually while other cylinders are still "strobing" for lack of a better word. Stator, Trigger Ohm out OK and DVA OK as well according to CDI specs. Coils Ohm out fine, spark appears good as well. Plugs are wet and oily. Also, the water in my cooling bucket (is there a word for that tank you stick the prop into?) is quite oily. Wonder if my gas is mixed wrong...help!
