Default Never assume the obvious!!!

Hi all, terrible day working on the 2007 EC250 today.

I had read every post ref jetting and embarked on my first jetting adventure.
I swapped the idle jet first but it ran very badly so I tried another one which was worse so I tried another one the other way which was even worse so I replaced the original which was shocking. Decided to change the position of the needle and nothing worked...I tried them all. It was getting difficult to even start. The changed the needle and the main jet but still no luck.. this went on all day...
I decided to set fire to it.... but went for a cup of tea instead...

Went back out to the shed and put everything back the way it was before I started and no joy...not even a flicker.. I was stumped so decided to check the spark plug. Guess what? No spark...nothing... zilch...
I tried an old plug (I had lying around) and it gave a big fat spark. New plug ordered....

So that damned plug decided to die at the precise time I was embarking on my carb tuning.... Sod's law!
