Hi all,
I have just stripped my K100 RT in the process of building a cafe racer.
Sent all the engine covers away for powder coat and set about the rebuild.
During the process I removed and replaced the crank sensor assembly.
now when i try to start the engine it doesnt start and i get a back fire like the timing is out.
I took pics of the sensor plate before I stripped, so I know I can be too far out, but could I be 180 deg out? the sensor plate only has 2 cutouts so could it be firing 180 deg out to the valve timing?
Thanks in advance
