Running on 3

Post by morris147 »

So my gk76a is running on 3 cylinders, cylinder 4 is the culprit. But why is it running on 3? Ive got spare coils to swap over, but what wires go to the coils?


Thanks in advance

If it runs on 3 only you can swop 1 and 4 over and see if the non running cylinder swops from 4 to 1, if not then its something else, spark plug or carb. If you swop leads and plug and it stays on 4 id say its the pilot system on 4.

Ye if the motor is ok- valves and rings, the only time ive had a motor drop on one cylinder apart from duff plug or lead has always been due to some crap in the pilot jet/circuit.
