Ok I’ve made a thread on this before it’s been a long project. I have a Klf300c, 150 psi compression, timing is good, carb is oem rebuilt. I got it running for a day and then it just cut out again. For a while it would run but only idle super low like 600-500 rpm. The only thing I have replaced was the pickup coil. The clymer manual says the gap is supposed to be .9 mm or something I don’t remember, but it didn’t look adjustable. Is there a way to adjust it? If not then I’m thinking the CDI is going bad. I just think it’s odd because it still has great and consistent spark. What do you guys think? Is there a good replacement out there for cheap? I’ve heard of the Caltric ones working?

Ok update, got it running but it still runs like crap. Fouling plugs and stumbling over itself. I have three different CDI boxes and regulator sets, they all do the same thing.

What happens if you slowly apply the choke? If RPMS go up, or Does it die?

Check for vacuum leaks?
