Do you have a timing light ? To check for spark w/o removing anything . Do you have a Bosch type noid light ? To check for fuel injector pulse . Do you have a fuel pressure gauge ? To check for fuel flow & pressure . First , make sure you have EVERY connection plugged in correctly and connected well .

Battery voltage , that is

The proper name for these star wahers are : internal , external or internal/external tooth lock washers . I use all three styles . If I am connecting to ground I use at least one washer .

That was good !

Carb Stix from Motion Pro on the left ?

They are also "baloney slicers" . Or at least in my little circle .

Now , see how many Kms you can put on this bike !

Well.......Remove the calipers and see how much difference it makes . Let us know

And if you will put this test first . Check the push on connector of the N switch wire . IDK why I didn't post this in the post .

Can you explain how center or ground electrode diameter has any effect or affect on when the spark jumps the gap ? I assumed the superior spark would take place at the greatest piont in coil saturation ? I was taught spark takes place the when igniton is triggered with ignition pionts or trigger device have gone from a closed to open condition ?

Look around where the wire the N light connector plugs in to the switch and follow the wire as far as you can looking for pinch points , cuts or signs of abrasion . If this is ok then unplug the connector and ride for one day . IDK how long it "normally" takes to flicker or come on . If it does come on the problem is still in the wiring harness somewhere . If the light remains out , the problem is in the switch .

As always

You need to consider adding fuel when this light comes on . If you feel lucky , stretch it out .

Hmmmmm.

Can you post the parts , part #s for all of us ?

Mercury , Merkur , Volvo , BMW . Jeep or Jaguar ( if I know you , it's the Jeep ) , another Jeep ? & IDK about the last vehicle . E36/7 ?

And now I have 3 tanks , and can have 3 different bikes . The bad news is I have ridden less than 120 mi. in 3 yrs .

If you SuperGlue or do anything the the collar to stop it's movement you can either unplug ar replace the LOW fuel level sensor . I have no input on the theory of operation of this . This same type of sensor exists in the oil pan of lots of vehicle. It sits horizontal & not vertical . So , does anyone know exactly how these work ?

You don't need to ( my opinion ) desecrate that color with them . Have you Googled them to see if you can find them ?

My bike came from Fla. I thought it was sun bleached . It showed some sun bleach evidence but it is still different from all the other lime green bikes. BTW , docc you sure have a good memory !

Sorry , the color on Amarrache's bike & mine are different than the one above & all the others around .

Yes. # 1 this red stuff is some kind of sealant. Clean it all off and purchase o-rings for the shut-off valve and fuel level sensor from MG.

docc , how do you pronounce talischook ?

Yes , that is the reason for the resistor caps , in case a non-resistor plug is installed on the assembly line or in a tune-up .

If you feel the need , record TPS reading before you start , swap each screw and adjust TPS to beginning reading .
