Twice the Spark on the Right Cylinder ?


Super Dave

Recommended Posts

When hooking up an External Tach inductor lead from the left then right cylinder, I'm coming up with about twice the spark on the right. 

Examples,

At idle - Left = 1100 & Right = 2200 RPM

At 3k - Left = 3000 & Right = 6000 RPM

Is that normal?

I have a video, but it's too large to attach.

I presume that you are using your inductive pickup on the lower spark plug wires?

 

If so then you might have to reverse the pickup direction on the R/H side  (arrow pointing away from spark plug) as on the 1150  twin spark one side lower sparks positive polarity & the other side is reverse & sparks negative polarity.   

 

Also remember that the lower spark plugs fire at EVERY piston up so set your Tac to one spark per rev (or even 2 cycle setting)
