Hi all:

I'm working on a '76 cj360T that is not charging. It runs well when the battery is charged but then dies as it is ridden. It doesn't seem to make the headlight brighter when it is rev'd. ...

Mike,

That looks great! Do you have someone in Grand Rapids who does your paint work? Do you do your own? I'm considering having some work done, but would prefer to find someone locally.

FX Ray.....you were exactly right! I did not have those slots lined up properly between the brake plate and the speedo slots in the hub. I aligned it, put the brake panel back in the hub and then tu ...

OK.......tried again for a spark. I put a charged battery in the bike and tried for a spark. Right cylinder showed a nice spark. Left side...no go. I took off the points cover and both sets of po ...

Mixer,

Thanks for the insights. I think I'll try the battery in with the charger on it and kick it and see if I can see spark with the garage lights off at night....should be pretty clear if I've ...

Helping a friend who bought a 76 360. Checked for spark and could not see one. Kick start only model, so I just removed the plugs and held plug tip against the head fin and had him kick it over. N ...
