I remember there being many options in scooters. Types for town driving and open roads. We were convinced we needed race spec plugs to go faster.

BP5E were in

Ok good to know

How about these?> https://www.jamespaddock.co.uk/spark-plug-champion-4

I'll check the choke. Moss don't have any BP6HS. Is there another option?

Yeah, i did them. They were very close. Only had to adjust 4 of them.

I don't have any extra plugs. I think i need a new rotor. The old one was in a terrible state. I've changed the cap but don't have a rotor annoyingly. I've cleaned it up but it doesn't look good. I've got a spark though. There's fuel getting to the carbs but I thought it was blocked until i blew it through. There was a bit of a pop as it cleared??? The carbs needed oil too. They were a bit sticky. Everywhere i've looked i think i've found the problem. I'm running accuspark "points". I could pop over to Moss tomorrow morning and get a new rotor and plugs. I bet that'll do it.

Still no go. I've come in as it's starting to rain. It was running fine before i went for a drive and got stuck in traffic. It was still running ok when i got home though. Maybe a little overheated. Then the next day it wouldn't start. It's almost like it would start with a push and then be fine after a few good revs, but that might be wishful thinking. I'll charge up the batteries (i have a couple) and try again after he's had a night to think about it. Such a shame, i want to see if the head is ok now. Maybe I warped it going for that drive.

I do! Stand by!

Still no go. This is unbelievably frustrating! I have a spark now at least

Yes. But the rotor and cap are in a bit of a state. Trying that now

It’s not starting. It nearly goes, then throws the starter out. Very frustrating

The torque it is!

Oooooooo decisions decisions😳

Or should I lift it?

I’ve re torqued now. might as well re assemble. i might still have time to do the head if it fails later today. Weather permitting

Washers look like this

I've got my Haynes so i'm good with the order. They weren't very tight. I could easily undo them with a normal ratchet.

I've managed to loosen them all half a turn. It's so tempting to carry on and get the head off, but I'll do the re-torque. I think i can work around that dowel if that's what it's called

I can’t get this little fella out

It’s the sort of area where a gazebo could mean a farmers market or a murder!

I shouldn't have taken him for that drive yesterday.

Not starting this morning. Normally starts very easily.
