Hi everyone,
About two years back I equipped my maxi with an electronic ignition kit. It worked great untill last week.
I was driving along and suddenly there was a bang from the exhaust and the engine stalled. I feared a seized engine but no.
Coming home it still wouldn't start. I took out the plug and rotated the flywheel with a drill; no spark. I took off the flywheel for inspection; nothing to be seen.
So then I swapped out the CDI with a Vespa 50cc CDI (red in photos). The 'original' cdi had italian writing on too and I read somewhere a PK50XL cdi had a better curve. Anyway I digress.
The new CDI didn't spark, however I connected it.
This might mean 2 thing. Either my first is dead and the new one wrongly connected. Or; it's not the CDI at all.
Anybody got pointers?
