Yeah, it was a suggestion by Mark Etheridge to hook the plug wire
directly
to the distrubutor input nut instead and manually crank the motor over
to
statically time it. While doing this I noticed the light flashes twice
when
the points open and when they close.

Whatever happened to doing that with a transistor radio, listening for
the "pop" when the points opened????
Thast was one of the things that set Guzzi apart....you can do a
complete tune-up sitting along side the road with a basic tool
kit....and a radio.
