Hello I have a 1974 ktm penton 400 will not start . It has the Motoplat ignition with the bing carb. I've seen better spark but I think it should work.I can't even get a pop out of it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm going to recheck the timing 2.5mm btdc would you know what the compression should be. New sparkplug,cap and I made the exhaust.It has a used motoplate stator.Spark is there not as strong as I would like.

Good morning I am a new member I have been given a 1974 KTM penton 400. It had no spark and had been put together with some wrong parts. After talking with some very knowledgeable people I have it back together with a used stator. My question is how do I time this monster.
