Re: engine miss

you need the OEM manual to do the step by step link n sinc. if you miss a step you have to start over from the beginning.

Re: engine miss

One thing you can do, is make sure the timer base moves forward smoothly without sticking when the throttle is advanced. And make sure the throttle cam hits the roller right on the mark - a tiny bit off can make a big difference. No, that's two things..............
