Re: Greenpea needs help

I’ve had issues with these motors where one side would spark well, but the other side wouldn’t. It’s a bit time consuming, but you start swapping parts from the "good" side to the "bad" side. You have a coil, a point assembly, and a condenser. Move the coil. Does the problem move? Move the point assembly, etc. That will identify the bad component, if any. Sometimes everything just works and something was loose somewhere. One time I really wrestled with one and it turned out to be a loose kill-wire that would intermittently ground out.

These are excellent running motors and are a lot of fun. Keep at it!
