"Change-out the firewall-mount ignition module when you notice the goo running-down your firewall from the back of the ignition module." There should be a sticky metallic tape with this on it, next-to the ignition module. It was not-only the muscle cars.
Oh the joy of ballast resistors my dart would puke one all the time kept a few in the glove box
I forgot about those, it could be the ceramic coiled-wire candybar, or it could be the melting ignition module, both next to each other on the firewall.
in the meantime I received the Pickup and replaced it, but the problems still persists. I will go now to look on a new Cdi.
I am having a similar issue and would like to hear how the new CDI works for you.
I’ve had the same thing off and on for the last month. Checked all connectors and cleaned them up to shiny metal and also found a small hole in the old vacuum line which leads to vacuum sensor, replaced that as well. Seemed to do the trick and for the past week ran great but going into work today it started back up, only after about 20 minutes of riding and once engine up to operating temp. Today all of a sudden my headlight and instrument cluster light both went out when I engaged my clutch as well and won’t come back on. Need a full day off to investigate deeper. Tested Pick up coil while hot and just a bit higher than spec. Thinking it’s CDI.
Metals have a positive coefficient of resistance, ie the resistance increases with temperature.
True, but if we are talking about changes in ambient temperature is the difference going to be significant?
Dunno without further investigation.
The fact it clears up after a power off/on would indicate to me it is an electrical component that runs erratically and is then reset after a power cycle.
Hi, I received the Ignitech and my bike is running now again since approx 2 month of seeking and searching for the problem. The bike is also running far better as ever. My feeling.
