it would have to be really bad to affect it. depends on the tightness of the spark plug mostly. I clean that area when I remove the spark plug. better safe than sorry
yeah i just took the wire from the cdi wraped it around the spark plug thread. i have 2 nuts that fit the sparkplug thread and the wires in between them and secure. and tapped too of course.now im even harder....
your using no boot at all? straight onto the plugs thread?
hmm, very similar to my boot which is just a spring speared into the wire...
no resistor.
neither is the plug.
what plug are you using? b5 or br5?
this may be the reason to be using a boot and or plug with a resistor...
ive only been having issues really since using this "spring boot"...
just thinking... unquenched back emf...iunno...maybe...
hmmmms. a plugs a cheap experiment...

im not sure which plug it is.. just the one it came with i presume (stock).
my magneto isnt killing itself. tomorrow im going into the city to zoombicycles warehouse and im going to get a new cdi, magneto and probably the crank shaft seal that fits behind the magnet rotor as mine leaks small amounts of oil into my magneto area. cdi and magneto are 15 bucks each no taxes and the rubber seal is 2 dollars. cant really go wrong right?
depending on how that goes i may even buy an expansion chamber exhaust as i hear it really makes a performance difference.. maybe even a better carb as mine leaks a bit of oil. i checked my magneto with a multi meter and it reads .002 ohms from white to black which is right on the 2k ohm setting. but then blue to white wire has no reading so i think its fried. oh well[/QUOTE
Another good thing is to dip connections into wax or fingernail polish. make sure to clean area to be grounded.
