    Hey guys, Im in need of some advice/help. I recently purchased an Mc22 which wasn't running at the time. The reason it wasn't running was the coil leads for in all the wrong order so after fixing that the bike started up but now its running as though only 3 cylinders are working and there is a loud ticking noise (see video) which persists after the bike is completely warmed up.

    As far as i can tell all the spark plugs are firing as they should (Photo is of brand new spark plugs straight out of the bike) and I have tried 2 different carbs in it that are confirmed to work fine as they were out of a running bike but the bike still feels extremely sluggish and struggles to rev under load. So my question can anyone shed some light on whats going on in terms of the ticking and sluggish performance, Im assuming the performance issue has something to do with the ticking.


    Any help would be great!

    Cheers
