Hi guys,
A friend gave me a 94 vmax 600. It had a bad cylinder. The pin that holds the rings in place let loose and destroyed the cylinder. Long story short I replaced both cylinders and pistons. I drained all old oil and fuel. cleaned and filled the tanks. Bled the oil lines. I pulled on it a few times and nothing. I do have fuel going to the carbs. I pulled the one of the plugs and just layed it on top of the head. I do have spark. It doesn't look really strong but I figured it wasn't getting a proper ground by just laying on the head. I sprayed a very little starting fluid thinking I'd at least get it to pop but nothing. I don't have a service manual for it but I seem to have fuel and spark but no fire.
Any ideas? I appreciate whatever you may have to offer.
