I'm trying to set the ignition timing on a 77 GS550 with a kokusan ignition system. I can't get cylinders 1- 4 timed, but i can get 2 - 3. I'm using an automotive circuit tester and I have the baseplate rotated all the way clockwise ( looking at the top screw the gap is all to the right) and the light turns on early. If i move the baseplate counter clockwise the light turns on even earlier before the fire mark. When i go to set 2 -3 after the light turns on right when it lines up with the fire mark. I just cant get 1 - 4 to not fire early.
I set the gaps on both points to .35 mm when the point is opened to its max point.
I've watched a million videos on setting points but none of these are solving this issue, i basically need to rotate the baseplate farther clockwise but theres no room to so it seems like there is another issue causing this. I've been at this for a couple days and its driving me crazy.
An electronic ignition is out of the question right now.
