You have the WC-1 engine on that Whizzer, and that engine is problematic. If something doesn't go wrong with the valve seats in the first 500 miles, you are doing well.
That cylinder was designed with valve seats that are pressed in. When they work loose (and they will), the only real choice is to go to the NE engine upgrade. This entails replacing the cylinder with same type used in the NE5. Quenton Guenther can give you more details about what is needed. He has done many such upgrades. If he doesn't see this thread and weigh in, you may want to send him a Private Message.

yep already delt with the valve seats right at 500 haha... seems to be an electrical problem...
 
Hi,seems like remember reading on this forum that the rear wiring harness needed to be plugged in in order to complete a ground circuit . Without the rear harness plugged in ,the use of a jumper was necessary in the rear plug to complete a necessary circuit to get a whizzer running. Suggest you do search for this type of wiring problem. I hope this helps . Good luck.

ok so added a ground strap from the green coil wire/terminal to main ground

added a ground strap from the engine to direct ground

added direct ground from main harness (inches before engine) to direct ground

get weak spark, will jump about .020" but will not fire engine, plug not wet but smells lightly of fuel and will not spark, only when dry

spark gets no stronger with any of the straps off...

spark is now constant(timed) but just weak

Next??
