I believe 81 was a transition year from the points to electronic ignition.

All of your parts will be the same. If it was older with an internal starter, the front bearing, and seal would be different. Everything else is the same.

I thought ‘80 was the transition year, but I could be wrong. My 1980 has the external starter but had points, so all I did was swap timing plates/pulsar/flywheel from a newer cart and did the HEI mod, now no more points!

Just doesn't make any sense that runs like a rapped ape in reverse and sputters in forward. I'm ready to take it to scrap yard [emoji34]

In your picture it shows that the screws for the timing plate aren’t in...I’m assuming you put them back in? Did you put the plate back in the same spot as when you started?

Yeah I had them out when took pic.. so I adjusted it with the mark in middle of screw and still same so adjusted it all the way one way and then all the way the other direction and doesn't change the way it runs in forward or reverse and still runs good in reverse but forward if floored it suits and spudders.. only thing not new is coil and wire and voltage regulator. I took all wires of everything and cleaned... [emoji848] Just don't make any sense to me [emoji34]
