Re: help with gk76a timing
So I've checked I have a good strong spark on all 4 cylinders
! But how can I check the spark is in the right cylinder at the right time?

You can not check it.
Makesure the low tension wires are on the correct coil as it sounds like the sort of problem you get when back to front.

Re: help with gk76a timing
Another quick question on the chi unit which of the coil wires are on top? Is it the white one or the black/yellow one?

Re: help with gk76a timing
're-checked the timing. Which was out but 1 tooth. Then checked for signal from the cdi to the coils. I found one of them was shorting out so it was always firing.... run a new set of wires for the coils.... and it started..... spent the rest of today rebuilding her and noticed the rev counter wasn't working . So double check the wiring diagram, and the coil wires extend to the rev counter. So I run fresh wires there to.... all fixed now just need to seal the tank an then fill it up....:) just in time fir summer..
