do i need a voltage reg.? installed timing plate and now no spark.

[thomas h.]

it did run with out one so do i need it? , I tryed to do a dc conversion with a adjustable timing plate and now no spark.

 

pick up ohms 114

 

ingition ohms 17

( these number may have gotten switched)

 

so stator is good also gap on pick up is 17 1000/s of an inch

 

woodruf key is in place

 

the only things changed is timing plate, and float the gound

 

the wire i add to the ground i put back on the gound to try to get spark. ( didn't work)

 

also cut the yellow lead so it is back the way is was befor. ( to reverse the float the ground)

 

still no spark

 

any thoughts?

harness was cleaned out and ran with out v. reg. could this hurt the cdi because i do not have one?

The only thing the Voltage Regulator is for is the lighting. If you don't have lights you don't need it. If you run your banshee with lights and without the regulator, the first time you rev your engine it will blow all your bulbs.
