Throttle Trouble please help!

An automotive plug boot helps... Those china ones can be crap at best

And so won't the correct plug as well...I would start there first before trying anything else so we don't complicate anything here.

And DeiselTech, you want me to shock myself to test plug cable? Holding clutch, cable, screwdriver and spinning wheel as fast as I can sounds like I'm 1 hand too short

Well dont get mad! You can push the bike too. If magnet was off it should not start at all. But it could of sheared the key on magnet. With piston at TDC your magnet should be positioned in the 1:00 area.

I'm sorry, what does TDC stand for?

Top dead center=TDC is when piston is all the way to the top of is stroke.

So remove the head, and with piston at TDC, look for a magnet? And it should be pointing at 1oclock? This is from behind motor?

If you got a new pencil stick it in spark plug hole & slowly rotate engine over till pencil stops moving up that will b tdc, & it might take a couple times to get it where you want it rotated.

Ok I had to go to shop & get 1 of my new engines out of stock to show you. Put pen or pencil in spark plug hole & rotate engine till piston is at tdc, or as soon as pencil stops moving up. Then your magnet keyway will be in the 1:00 position, like the red line shows on this engine.
