Basic conductivity checks
7. Spark generator contacts:
Take the spade terminals off the spark
generator, clean the contacts, and
replace using petroleum jelly to protect
if needed.
The spark generator may be green in
colour and not white as shown.
If the gun still does not fire after these simple contact
cleaning procedures, move onto the next stage of this guide.
Make sure all the contacts are clean and free from corrosion
6. Spark plug maintenance:
Remove the rubber cap and unscrew the plug lead followed by
the spark plug. Clean the thread, reset the gap using a £1 coin and reassemble making sure
you replace the rubber cap.
5. Corroded earth:
Remove the back
plate and unscrew the earth wires. Clean
the connectors and the earth point with
emery cloth and reassemble, using
Vaseline (petroleum jelly) to protect
against future corrosion.
