    Update….Mystery solved, at least as it relates to the throttle not advancing.

    So I got enough time in between rain storms to pull the flywheel off and look over everything again.

    What I discovered was that the replacement screws that came with the new coils were too long and were causing the mag plate to be stuck in place – hence throttle wouldn’t advance.

    The throttle / mag plate / cam / etc is all free and moving like normal again.

    Rain started falling again right as I buttoned it up so the real testing of the new ignition parts is going to have to wait.

    Thank you all for your help so far!
