Intermittent ignition fault
Posted: Tue Feb 20, 2024 4:40 pm
Having a problem with my 1962 G2. The ammeter, when switched on, drops to the -ve range. I then attempt to start the bike, it coughs and fires for maybe 6-8 times, then dies and the ammeter is then on 0. I operate the kickstart lever, and after several attempts the ammeter then goes back to negative, and the whole process starts again.
Bike had a 12v negative earth conversion before I got it. This is a new fault, bike ran when purchased.
My question. Where to start looking for intermittent ignition faults, and is this a common one?
