[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 97098, member: 60"] I have a new B6EV at the moment and waiting for a Champion N5c strange thing is it starts easily on the rollers or the Foxley starter and it runs fine on the road and goes down to a tickover I have checked the timing at 34 degrees but it is not starting on the kickstart the compression is not high, head is about 80cc on a 600 cylinder so about 8.5 :1 I remember reading about rust in BTH but next job is to swap out a coil I do see a faint spark at the plug (but thats no way to check a BTH!) and I dont think there is an easy way to check a coil but as I say it runs sweet as a nut once it starts perhaps its my old leg....
