[QUOTE="MOTOPHILE, post: 649317, member: 38140"] I have a 1974 TL125. Anyone know what the gap on the points should be set at? And where to line up for setting? Also I would like to know a good place for starting on the carb settings too. Bike has been sitting awhile and trying to tune it up. Bought carb new a couple years back and just cleaned it out (2 times it is CLEAN). Bike idles good but only runs smoothe up top when the choke is on (ran fine before storage). Maybe the float level? Also the coil burned a hole through the side and was sparking a few years back. I patched it and it ran fine. I put a different coil on and still same effect. Now it will not run wide open without backfiring and sputtering. Tried adjusting carb with engine wide open to smooth it out but made NO difference. But so far the points are just adjusted by ear. Think the ignition turned or timing chain jumped a tooth while in storage? Ran fine before I stored it. Lots of clues. Any ideas? Thanks, Ron [/QUOTE]
