Fitting electronic ignition

#1 PostAuthor: Richardz900 » Thu Jan 01, 2009 4:22 pm

The HT lead has broken where it enters the coil on my z900 A4, i'v now decided to fit a Boyer Bransden Micro-Power CDI which includes new coils which i'll be ordering from z-power. Has anyone got any advice as to how to fit this myself? Or should it be taken to a garage to be done? I have basic knowledge and don't want to start the job if I cant finish it. Any tips will be appreciated.
Cheers :)

Just fitted a Dyna S system and 3 ohm coils to my Z1B,easy to follow instructions,can't go wrong,just make sure you fit some heat shrink tubing to the mounting bolts/spacers so LT side does not short to earth,pm me if you need some heat shrink tubing

The general consensus on here is go DYNA everytime.... :??

I got a new DYNA S ignition for grabs.... :wink:

Boyer Branstonpickle systems don't seem to be too robust... :cry:

If you can set points up it should be no problem for you to put elec ignition on. You will need a strobe and a basic idea of wiring would be an advantage.
