So I get spark when my plugs are out and touching metal, but it seems as soons as i put the plugs into the head, i lose the spark and flood the engine (since its not igniting the gas...the plugs are acturally dry). I have a couple of ideas of what may be the problem, but i am definitely longshotting it here...any help would be great (as in telling me my ideas are useless, or giving me ones that could be causing this).
1. Compression - its currently at 210 (way too high for my liking, was gonna change domes to lower it to 170-80ish) with stock electrical - - is the spark just not hot enough or something?
2. Battery - Although its hooked up to a booster, could the cell be so dead that the spark just isn't hot enough?
3. Bad gasoline - Been using premium (91 octane) to try and get it started (after turnover i was gonna fill a tank with race gas) which is some older gas...could this be an issue?
4. Bad ground - throwing it out there, could this be the cause of my situation?
5. Timing is off - i advanced my timing and replaced my flywheel with an aluminum one...not sure if this would have anything to do with it.
6. bad electrics - stator not working, CDI blown out (?)
It seems odd that i have spark Outside of the machine, but as soon as i put the plugs back in it doesn't wanna spark.
Any one else have this issue? If so what did you do?
lemme know im DYING to get my ski going...help a fool out!!
