Yes if you put the piston about 10 or 15 deg before TDC on the compression stroke and then adjust the point so the are jut going to touch closed and try that

TDC on compression stroke

Welcome to the forum

Take the plug out and see when it sparks, is it before a or after top dead centre Try setting the timing to around 10deg before top did centre as a starting point

The black wire is the earth so when the contacts close it completes the earth circuit If you put the red wire where the white one is you will just create short the circuit

The point work like a switch, the earth wire would go through the points, so the earth wire opens and close, when the close it puts power through the ignition and creates the spark for the coil, if the modular is ment for hall effect sensor then it might not work with points

This is how points and coil should be wired, not sure about the module you have under the engine you might find some useful info here How To Wire Up A Sparkie That is how mine is wired

Hi It will run g-code generated from CAD-CAM software, I use fusion360 The controller will move Z & X axis at the same time, so it can do threading and turn tappers also ball ends I am not a qualified machinist just a self taught hobbyist so for me making my small lathe and my mill CNC was part...

I also swapped my small CNC lathe over to a Masso touch controller so I could do away with the computer and Mach3 The mill has been running on a Masso controller since around March 2022, very happy with it

I bought a 3 phase 4Hp motor and VFD in 2018 and never used it, so I just decide it was time to make in fit the mill and put it to use I didn't want to butcher the pulley on the original motor as the shaft sizes were not the same, so I made a new shaft extension for the new motor First I made a...

welcome to the forum

Mounted a self centering four jaw chuck to an aluminium back plate so it could be bolted to the mill and round stock can easily be held

Decided to make a few Tap Handles for 2mm, 2.5mm and 3mm taps

Managed to get the engine reassembled today I did manage to get it to run but it does need a bit more fine tuning

New Cylinder liner made and loctited in

Time to see if it will fire and run, I put fuel in the tank, no Leakes that's good Set the timing roughly, probably to roughly, it fired and then back fired and the result was the liner was pulled down and jammed on the crankshaft It seemed like a tight fit, I had to heat the casting in the...

Got the points and ignition system sorted out, engine is now complete

Hi Russ The casting is just a cover over the end of the crank, its not open on the bottom

Rings done and installed Piston and rod installed, just have to workout the ignition points
