I'm getting my 69 Commando back in roadworthy condition. Bought it disassembled in 1989, got it going, had some trouble with the tank and ethanol, replaced the tank with a steel one. (Stopped driving it as soon as I figured out ethanol with be a problem, so believe no gumming up the engine.) Put in a Pazon electronic ignition, rebuilt the carbs.
Fired it up over the weekend, timing seems right (set it carefully with a timing wheel), but getting nasty backfire from the right cylinder. Pulled the right exhaust, right exhaust valve looks to be operating properly.
Any suggestions on what to do now?
