so I went to finally go test ride the 650g last night andwent to start it, and it wouldn't start on any choke setting. I would have to turn the throttle to get themotor to light off. after I could get itto light off, it wouldn't idle, just stall out. and it has plenty of fuel. I had to turn up the idle adjustment knob wayup just to get it to barely idle. theonly thing I did was I replaced a fried ground wire that I found that goes fromthe starter solenoid/battery tray assembly and had to replace it all the way towhere it t's at the horn junction. sinceI had to dig into the harness i'm going to see if I damaged any of the wires tothe right hand coil. any clues as to whatelse I should look at? I have posplayr'ssspb and when I turn the key off but leave the kill switch on, I get a faultlight on the sspb and my neutral and oil pressure lights stay on until I flipthe kill switch. this is why I want tolook at the coil/ignition wiring, but also want ideas of what else to look at
I also heard a knocking sound, sounded like it was in thetop end. how big of a mess would I makeif I took the cam cover off and ran it like that for diagnostic purposes? I assume oil will get slung around, but willit be as bad as a small block chevy? i'mthinking this is going to be my sunday project, since the weather is supposedto be crap and my yard needs some love. I also will look to see if my ignition rotor/advancer has come loose, since it appears to be coming from the right side of the bike. I hope I don't have to pull the motor again
