the addict Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Thinking about getting this Ignition system for the REV3, has anyone tried it out on here? Seems like it is variable as well to suit your riding style and has a 100% non failure rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted October 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Heath, done three plugs again the past 2 weeks? maybe time to swap the ignition I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob214 Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 sounds like a carb problem, i only changes plug becasue i think it's time to. unless you have a problem that really leads you to believe that it's the ignition, but if a plug change makes it work awhile then it's probably not the ignition. what color is the electrode when you take out the plug?

the addict Posted October 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 (edited) Hi Rob, definatley not the carb, just had it all checked out and tuned, bikes been popping plugs for ages now . Runs perfectly throughout the rev range and idles smoothly but will suddenly do a plug for no apparent reason I can live with it but can be a bit annoying at times, could be the ignition slightly out or the mid, end box clogged up, will try clearing out the black stuff tomorrow I think and see what happens. Plug is good whilst running but obvoiusly covered in crud when it comes out after missing for a few minutes.

rob214 Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 make sure air fliter is clean and oiled properly to much filter oil and it will muck up the plug. and check your silencer packing, make sure no air leaks in exhaust or intake from begining to end. things i would try - put new plug each time, start and let idle for a few minutes then check plug, run low throttle then kill check plug, then run high speed pass then kill and check plug. also see if you can get the wiring info and test all componets to make sure or if you have a friend with the same bike swap out one piece at a time and try and locate the problem child that way. just trying to offer up some things to check before you throw down money. hope you get it sorted rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted October 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Cheers Rob, filter, silencer all good, done plug chops as well all seems fine. Bike runs reallly nice could nt be better but will just blow a plug all of a sudden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
