    Ok I’ll order a stator. should I order a cdi while I’m at it? Act300r I thought it might’ve been something to do with the air box but it was bone try no gas in it whatsoever but thanks for letting me know about that.

    You need to make sure you use all oem compnents. Do not use aftermarket. If you can’t find NOS, purchase nice, used parts. Here are some examples.

    CDI: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-ATC-2...YAAOSwdX1elgq0

    Stator: https://www.ebay.com/itm/85-HONDA-AT...ty!70458!US!-1

    If you want to go new on the stator, I have heard people have luck with Ricky Stator but I have no personal experience with their products.

    No, Caltric is junk.

    Ok thanks for letting me know. Should I order both source coil and lighting coil? The last time I was able to drive it the lights were strong. so I shouldn’t have to order a new one correct?

    Just source coil should be sufficient.

    2 things.
    1. don't park your bike on the front wheel like that, its bad on the bearings. lol
    2. have you adjusted the space between the pickup and the rotor ( I see the rotor cover is off) ? I put a business card between the two and tighten down the adjustment screws.
    also check those wires coming from the pickup, are they plugegd in correctly to the harness? are they pinched or fraid?

    Just something small to check, while you wait for the coil.
    MrC. ( nice looking bike )

    I have adjusted it before it’s been awhile though and I used a magnetic feeler guage it’s close but not spot on. I’ll do the business card trick when I get the chance. I put all new connections on all the wires I thought that might’ve been it but it wasn’t. I had no idea it was bad on the Bearings to park it like at. thanks for letting me know! Also thanks for the compliment on the bike.

    Part got here Monday so that a plus. But sure enough that was what was wrong with the spark! I got it to fire with starting fluid after a couple of kicks. But I didn’t want to run it in the house plus it was really late when I done that so I’m going to try to start it tomorrow when I can will let y’all know what happens.

    Ok so it ran for a couple of seconds really rich though, I was able to rev it up then it quit. Checked spark all good, checked the advancer all good, then I go and take the carburetor apart apparently I didn’t have the pilot jet tight so it fell out. So I put it all back together and I really don’t know how to explain what’s happening now but I’ll try. So it’s like firing the exhaust is getting warm I can hear it too but it will never fully start and run. Any ideas what’s going on?

    It was the needle in the wrong position but now it’s not top end breaking up it bottom end! Any ideas? It’s only when the choke is fully off it runs ok with it on half choke so I think it’s too lean. right?

    Oem carb? If so it needs rebuilt. It’s all over the place. My guess is it’s worn out.

    Yes oem carb. I've put all new components jets, float, etc. it probably is worn out as you said. I've never heard any tale of anyone doing a deep rebuild before.
