Could it be the timing?

[Lrdrlker]

After I get this coil problem solved, I need to take a closer look at the timing settings on this motor. I'm thinking the misfiring issue sounds like a timing symptom. The plugs look good. If the coils check out(see previous posts), then this seems like the most likely cause. What do the more experienced members think? Cheers

I think you are jumping to conclusions.

You need to accept the fact that timing on these motors is set at the factory.------It does not go out of adjustment during normal operation of the motor.------Unless the flywheel key shears.----Or somebody starts tinkering with it.

Understood, thank you. I will leave the timing alone. Will go and remove from the freezer that "humble pie" that my wife made me ! She said I will probably need some ! I've learned 2 things lately from this forum...timing and carbs are preset from the factory so don't screw with them!!! Adjustments are made via the link & sync! Without question!
