!970 XLCH Wont start
Hey everyone,
A buddy of mine bought a 1970 XLCH a while back and we are really struggling to get this thing on the road. Neither of us are experienced what so ever, so this all a very flustering learning experience to say the least...The bike has a mag on it with a super b. When he first had it it would sputter and pop when just going down his road now it won't even start. We recently tried to fire it up again and we watched the mag spark, made sure the timing was lined up and the points were the manual distance apart (.015in) and made sure the plugs had spark too. We put gas in it and it immediately flooded the back cylinder and started pouring out of the exhaust. So we fixed the float and what not but then we weren't getting any more spark out of the plugs or anything as well as the timing was all out of whack again in the mag. We are lost so any suggestions or tips are greatly appreciated!! I am a huge fan of this forum hopefully with everyones insight we can get it all figured out!
Thanks guys!!
