We're working on a friend's 1981 cb125s that won't start, and I'm not sure what to do here.
First off it has the CDI ignition instead of points. I can't find much info on timing these little guys out there, but I set the crank to the F mark on the compression stroke and lined up the marks on the ignition. I'm not sure this is correct, and if it is I do not know if i need to set the gap between the stationary and spinning parts.
Secondly, the original carb was beyond repair and replaced with an aftermarket carb. I'm not sure where the air and fuel screws need to be, nor what the float height should be set to.
Any help would be much appreciated, we would love to get this thing on the road.
