    8N firing order

    52 8N sputtered and died and wont start

    Fuel is good. I double checked it and it had a good flow. Im going to take the ceramic resistor out of it. Does it still need the oem ballast resistor with a 12v coil?

    52 8N sputtered and died and wont start

    I have a 52 8N that has a 12v conversion. It has a true 12v coil and a ceramic resistor. Any help would be great. I have checked the coil and points and both seem good. Fuel is good as well. Im lost as to what could be the issue.

    12v Conversion

    I recently picked up a 52 8N that someone started a 12v conversation on. Does anyone have a wiring diagram that could assist me in placing these wires. Everything I find on google or YouTube doesnt seem to work for mine.
