    need some quick help! 82' 185s

    my 185s will not start! its getting a bright big blue spark cause it has a new stator coil on it, its getting gas and i also sprayed ether in it..all it does is backfire..im 95% positive its in time because ive messed with it about 5 times and all the arrows align...i was supposed to sell it last weekend but couldnt get it going and he said just let him know when it does...and i really need some money right now so any help is greatly appreciated... in time, getting gas, getting spark.. all it does is backfire, new plug also

    Try flipping the pulser coil flywheel behind the CDI cover! Its probably just 180 out.

    when you installed the cam you had the lobes down right? if they were up your 180 out and you have to flip the rotar.

    yea the lobes were down..i flipped the roter and it didnt even backfire...the timing is dead in and i flipped the rotor back around and it backfired...starting fluid is the only thing it will do it on though...gas wont make it do anything..its kinda startin to p/o me...im tired of screwin around with it and not getting anything out of it..i tried pullin it down the road and still nothing...timing is correct, getting gas, getting blue big spark...why wont it run?! its getting good compression too...

    Try advancing and retarding the timing a little bit at a time to see if you can get better results. If not, check your valve lash. What collor is the spark?
