check the timing, the sparks only useful if there at the right cylinder at the right time!

cut the spark?

Try swapping coil wiring, you may be sending spark to wrong cylinder

not using pump as rrw didnt have one.using pump off cbr 600 i think.bought off ebay and as i say was running absolutly fine with all
ancilleries.engine has been standing for about 7 months.would the plugs really go down just like that?only other thing i have done is put new clutch
springs in.

Plugs are very temperamental in the Blade. Stick some new ones in........
