Does any one now how to start a pinto with bike carbs when i am getting a spark and fuel is getting to the carb, i'm also on megajolt,i've flattened the battery twice trying to start the bugger, plus , does any one now the firing seqaunce from a zetec coil to a 2ltr pinto , got ma leads mixed up,

Try squirting easistart into carbs . If it's the fueling causing problems it should fire and run for a couple of seconds. Think the firing order is 1 3 4 2 , the coil pack may be marked accordingly. If that dioesn't get you started try changing the leads so that leads 1&4 go to coil positions2&3 . PS brake cleaner is as good as Easistart for starting engines. Could also be your ignition timing out but can't help with timing megajolt system

Megajolt uses the wasted spark system so fires 2 plugs at the same time if you don't get any sort of ignition then swap the leads over

Cheers fellas.

Hi Greg i find if i use choke on my car it will not start very easy i have the same carbs as you . I don't know about megajolt but if you u2u Ray ward he may be able to help Graham

I don't use the choke until it has fired up.

I start on tickover and then give a little choke and revs at the same time.

As has been said, the system fires two plugs at once so just make sure it is firing the correct two.

I usually just squirt from propane or butane gas from the blowlamp down the carb before rolling the engine over... never fails, unless the spark or valve timing is wrong etc.
