^^^^^ F lol think I'll have to tbh mate
One thing I did notice today was that TDC does not quite line up with the pointer and notch on the crank pulley, should I set it to TDC or on the pointer/notch ?????

do you have a factory cam pulley? if so, then time it up as per haynes..
Yep got one of them, think I'll fit it
Was just thinking wether it had to be at TDC looking through the spark plug hole or on the pointer/notch ?
go with factory settings for a start.. once it runs, start playing.
I think my Dad has a colourtune kit Edd (whatever it is). I'll speak with him as he is a bit of a mechanical wizard as you know, though electronic injection scares him back onto Amal carbs.... But engine fundamentals are straight forward enough.
Bare metal your earths (vaseline after to keep out moisture) & check the coil bracket is nicely earthed through the inner wing too (just a thought).
Re the cam, its not a matter of it should run, maybe badly, but if it is causing the airflow into the chambers to be way out of the parameters the AFM is looking for the ECU is probably not capable of understanding the signals its getting.....
The other issue that occurs to me is that of the idle screw & its channel in the TB. I guess you havent touched it but if its blocked or closed there is no air getting past the TB when the throttle butterfly is closed.
I'll have another look at it tomorrow when I get up in the afternoon and let you know mate
Cam swap won't happen till weekend tho as I'll be cained from nights
Thanks again everyone for their imput :thumb: I'll report back
I think it's worth verifying with 1300 owners on here what they think the firing order is & ideally get a pic of the leads on the dizzy numbered with the lead/cyl no, incase the Haynes diagram is wrong, imagine that!
Good point Craig

Is different than the Haynes :confused:
if you look at it from the dizzy end, top right is 1, then you should view it as 1342 anti clockwise.Quote:

rough yet effective..
Colourtune kit is like a clear spark plug, used for setting up carbs so you can see the colour of the combustion process. Never seen one in person but they sound like rather cool bits of kit.
