Finished welding new crossbar for the tank and seatbelt mount. Finished welding new upper radiator support. Cleaned, primed, and painted items.
Installed
motor ((
Internal Combustion Engine ? )), clutch, belt, starter, exhaust, carbs, intake, fuel and pulse lines. Blocked off about 5 nipples not going to be used. Noted 2 carb vent lines - installed long vent tubes. Plumbed and filled the water pump oil tank - drip-drip-drip takes a long time for oil to get down there I guess that's right though.
Started working on electrical. Had to order electrical tape, spade terminal set, heat shrink, 12v relay, wire loom, and some wire. Mostly hooked up the radiator fan just need a few spades to complete. Ignition system checked out. At first I was barely getting intermittent spark, but I found my pulse/trigger coil was not putting out enough vAC due to not being close enough to the flywheel's pickup. I moved it almost 1mm closer to the pickup so now its 0.015" gap. All better now. BTW that went from 0.200vAC to 0.420vAC doing that.
Also the charge coil is putting out 22vAC at 500rpm cranking.
The lighting coil is only putting out 6vAC but I'm thinking that will come way up when Engine actually runs.
About 1 in 10 e-starts and the pinion on the starter motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) would jam into the flywheel. I then noticed the alignment was not close enough for a good mesh. I took the starter motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) off and ground down the morning points by about 1.5mm to more the alignment closer. She has not bound up since. Gotta say though - this starter is loud loud LOUD! My apply 5 watch is saying 95db from the driver's seat. The gears are meshing well though and there doesn't seem to be any wear. Hope it stays together!
