Today I
fixed my carb issues by keying the throttle springs into the needle plate, when I put in new cables I botched it

soldered my ground wires and included the ground coming out of the harness

discovered a new erratic clank/tap noise coming out of the primary or behind it.......

Mal, that really stinks but I may be headed that way. I keep hearing a ping/clanking at idle that has me terrified its something similar. It goes away at speeds though.

Back on topic, yesterday, I was able to finally locate the correct bolt to fix the cb plate onto the exhaust camshaft. The previous bolt wasnt long enough and had the wrong threads. It was letting the cam walk up off the spindle and wouldnt hold the timing. I am plagued by incorrect fasteners. First it was the clutch assembly and now its the cb plate. Wonder whats next?
