Re: fastwin 18 coughing and dying...again...
well i pulled the flywheel off again and the coils were deffinatly lined up with the bosses... but they were hitting anyways. I moved them back as far as they could go to insure that they wounldnt hit. they actually didnt move that much farther back. I did noticed that from hitting the flywheel the end of the coil mounting boss, that sticks towards the flywheel, was becoming seperated. (the bosses are layers of metal layed on top of one another, the layers are starting to pull apart). will this effect anything?
I did determine that bad gas was my problem AGAIN (from a gas station over 120miles from the first one). i took everything apart and cleaned and let it dry. reassembled and it still coughs and dies. when it is running it is consistently coughing. it seems like almost every 2nd firing on one of the cylinders is a cough. I switched the plug wires around just to make sure they werent backwards. thats deffinatly not the problem. ideas??
