Was it going okay until you put the ignition on?

Boyer have a Fault Finding page on their website.

Click Here

If you still can't get it to work send the unit back to them for testing.

Free if under waranty or ?6 if not.

Where abouts in the West Midlands are you?

I don't like to be a prophet of doom, but it's been said many times before on this site - the best place for a Boyer ignition is in the bin. They work well on twins, but I've never found one working as you would expect on a 4cyl.

Maybe I was a bit harsh in hindsight - How about....All those with a good ignition system take one step forward! Not so fast those of you with Boyers....

Jerry, not quite right, the Boyer Branston Pickle chaps will have to 'Step Up' coz they probably won't be able to 'Ride Up' :?
