So added some new plug wires in the notch. And mounted the coil. Tried to start but my sparkplugs are stuffed so need to get new ones.

But so far so good. Also gave the goblin a wash :)

I can spot another problem.... that dizzy cap. Replace it with a stock unit from Midas. Your pretty one will leave you stranded.

You can have a nice blue dissy top, but not that type.

Take you stock std. one from Midas, tape up to the level of your rubber wire socks, and spray it, do not get paint inside, and then remove tape, so that no paint is under the wire socks.

Hey!!!! Presto.... cool looking dissy cap that will not drop you in the :bn: when you least can afford it.
