help me ke keeps stalling

[mattie]

hey guys just bought a ke70 last week drove fine until i lowered it on friday night now it keeps stalling and wont start again i have replaced pump,filters and carby but it`s still doing it.

i have good fuel pressure i revs fine but when I'm driving it it will go for a while and then start to splutter then stall i have heaps of spark,now it`s been lowered the car is really stiff do you think it could be because of that,something`s disconecting?

any help would be appreciated.

thanks matt

someone said maybe it`s the points could this be correct?

[pebbles]

duno why coz the cars lowered, doubt it has much to do with it, probs just coincidence.

so it wont start?

what happenes when you try and start?

check fuses first

also check wires that goto starter, mine came loose the other day and car woudlnt start took me ages to work it out n it was just a loose wire right next to the battery lol

but yeah, stalling could also be points, and not starting, if it turns over and doesnt start it most probs is that, that happened on mine aswell
have you checkd spark?
check spark, and if you are getting some spark but not like 1-2-3-4 spark
then do the points,

ito check the spark get the lead that goes from the coil to the dizzy, and take it off the dizzy and hold it next to the body of the car while a mate turns the motor over with the key.

the spark should be about 4 a second or so, not like 1 a second which is what it might be if the points are set shit, or even nothing at all if the points are closed shut.

also your ballast resister could be fucked, white thing next to coil,

u can bypass this with wire as a dodgey short term "see if it works thing" but not adviseable to do this as a fix tho i did in my ke30 lol

iv`e tried all that i just poured fuel down the carb and it started ran excellent but then stalled again iv`e replaced 2 carbs 3 fuel pumps and 2 filters wtf could it be??

i just replaced the coil,points,ballast resistor and plugs it`s probably something stupid.

idle control solenoid.

its always the goddamn control solenoid...check fuses marked "engine" to see if they are fine. and there should be a wire from the carby to a plug then more wires goin into the loom. make sure thats plugged together...

did it start after you put a new fuel load in it? i filled up at a bp once and bought 50 bucks worth of ultimate water
could the coil be getting too hot? would this cause that aswell?
