..i have a problem guys my 1982 kz is driving me nuts , when i earth the plug to the engine it does not fire at the tip, how ever when i hold it slightly away from the engine it fires, when the plug is inserted into the engine the cylinder does not fire ...when i hold the plug cap a little back from the plug it fires.
any thoughts???   thanks
