Perhaps the extremely sharp angle where the throttle cable goes into the top of the carby has something to do with it?

Any fool can see the spark plug lead has become disconnected what's all the fuss about.

Do what you want with the spark plug lead, but personally, I would look into getting a longer connecting rod. Looks like a bit of a reach from the crank to the cylinder.

If it is an anti-clockwise circuit with left hand corners, I don't see a problem.

This is what happens when you don't tighten the muffler bracket to the frame.

I don't know whether its heartening or frightening that other forum members are as much of a smart arse (Aussie), smart ass (American) or smart alec (polite) as I am!
