Hi all
So I had a bike with an electronic ignition, not sure if it was when I tried hooking up a kill switch on it and killed the spark off an on or what, but I wasn't impressed when it consistently seemed to cause the good ole stuck WOT that lead to diesel running...so canned it and went back to points, this is on Tessa the Trails. Dave made a flange and we got rid of the Villers S25, been rebuilt too many times and the body was beginning to tweak. Got a new and converted to 2 stroke Amal concentric on her and I decided to add a British 6 volt coil, of which I scored a handful at the swap meet, ENCO I think it is. I must say, quite the difference, excellent. I didn't get a manual choke though so its a pain, gotta turn up the idle until it warms up...but darn 2 kick start, much better manners all around!
So, decided what the heck, added same to my Wessex and same fantastic result, though I am now tracking a fading compression problem down, but WOW the start and running difference...AMAZING!!
Anyone else with input on this matter?
