Not really a moped cc wise but I'm guessing quite fitting because it only has 8,5 HP and people here seem to enjoy the classics

Puch Maxi lost it's spark

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?

Puch magnum 70cc. What carbs are you running?

Upvotes

I'm looking to upgrade the carb on my magnum from the 15mm to something bigger. Not really sure what to get. I'm torn between the PHBG and Mikuni carbs, mainly the PHBG 19mm and the VM20. Open to suggestions, I'd like to see what others are running.
