TS185/400 stator values

[pokey]

With the TS coils . First one produces the charge and the second sends the signal to the cdi to fire.  No additional charge us produced by the second coil.

Fitted up the Rex's speed shop coil designed for the GT500 & GT250X7 & the spark is back, the leads are really long & I'll cut them down to a more realistic length after tidying up the new mounting bracket
I've had it running a couple of times so far & am quietly confident that it should work for the 4th round of the eNZed series on Saturday

This is starting to do my head in
Part way through practice yesterday the bike stopped pulling when coming back onto the throttle, would run okay at low revs & when the revs got up just not in between. After a couple of laps it starting popping & banging before stopping with no spark again, does that sound like a CDI fault?
Any other ideas?

You must be just unlucky as the old TS185er CDI are stone reliable

Having checked everything maybe, HEAT or the ZED motor shaking shit out of the stator, or no advance of CDI box .Time to swap parts

Old bike are FUN right

startin t do my head in too Tony--& i wasn't even there--sometimes i wonder if i'm even here!!

Possible CDI issue, or possible incorrect timing setting on the stator.

not often do you ever see a TS PEI unit go belly up. being as the unit is not on a suzuki that could make a difference on how you have set the timing.

for the TS timing settings page 15 near the bottom of the page.

All the TS 185er setups on ZEDS ive seen only had one stator coil suppling the power to the CDI, plus the TS flywheel riveted to the ZED centre, I know PE /RGV Suzuki had a problem cracking or breaking bits of Magnets off the flywheel, maybe a loose magnet or not enough air gap coil to flywheel or to big a gap, might have to move the coil on the back plate , your trick coil made up for the weak pulse from the bottom stator coil ??   

Hope you find a BIG blue spark soon

The way you describe the flywheel is what I did, from memory the hub centre in the Suzuki flywheel is about 1mm smaller than in the CZ flywheel & I machined it to a good fit
The coils for supplying power to the CDI are stacked & the thinner of the 2 coils connects to the larger before heading up to the CDI, this is the coil referred to as the pulser coil in the parts books
I'm working 12 hour nightshifts until 6am Thursday so it will probably be Friday before I get to have another look at what is going on & possibly try another set of stator coils
Chances are it's something simple as it's been perfect for the 3 or so years that I've run it

Had an email at about 3:30am to say my electrexworld system has been shipped so that will go in when it arrives even if I can find the problem
