I will attach a photo when I find one that will load onto the website.

Are these still available?

Yes.

That's good, one of mine is broken, how much are you looking for?

Had to give up after 5 minutes - what an insufferable dick.

I've just done the plug caps off, how far will the spark jump test. Rear cylinder is 15+mm, front is barely 5, possibly less. Transducer?

Also, I'm revisiting float height, I made an adaptor so I can run a clear tube from the float bowl, let's see.

Thanks all for the replies, I'll work my way through the suggestioins.

On another note, does 230 Ohms with 54V at 'kickover' sound about right for the ignition coil? Volts seem lowish?

Thanks for the response Andy, all checked and correct.

I'm hoping someone in the collective has a solution to this. Newish to me Kanguro, I've had to iron out several problems, electrics, stripped sparkplug etc.
The bike is back together and running but I don't think it's running well. Very high fuel consumption. I've stripped and untrasounded the carbs ...

They look nice/homogenous enough but, where's the V-twin engine?

Re. your spark plug angle.
Assuming you have another cylinder head with a good plug thread, why not machine the insulation from a spark plug, bore the spark body to take a suitable straight rod, insert aforemtioned rod through spark plug body and clamp the rod in the chuck on the mill. Then ...

That's probably what will happen, it would be easier knowing the original angle. I thought I had copies of the technical drawings but I 'misremembered'.

A flurry of responses - thank you comrades. The repair is on a (new to me) Kanguro cylinder head where the timesert wound out with the plug when I was changing plugs. Since a new timesert won't work alone, it needs opening up and an aluminium insert fixed in place before the new timesert. Much more ...

Anybody?!

Does anybody know the angle of the spark plug relative to the head in these engines? I need it for a milling machine setup.

Good to meet you too Julian, perhaps we'll do some TET at some point.
