IGNITION SYSTEM    17 

 

 

DESCRIPTION 
 

The ignition system is of the capacitive discharge type. 
The  system  is  made  up  of  a  magneto  flywheel,  CDI  control  unit  and  an 
HT  ignition  coil.    The  voltage  generated  by  the  coil  is  stored  in  the       
condenser. 
The  signal  generated  by  the  pick-up  windings  is  sent  to  the  control  unit 
that will discharge the current stored in the condenser into the coil’s pri-
mary  windings; a high voltage pulse is generated in the coil’s secondary 
windings that will generate the spark in the spark plug. 
 
 

 

Magneto flywheel 
 

The magneto flywheel consists of a condenser charge windings and a 
pick-up coil to generate the activation signal for the CDI control unit. 
 

CDI control unit 
 

The  CDI  control  unit  consists  of  a  condenser,  pulse  generator 
(connected  to  the  flywheel’s  pick-up  windings),  ignition  advance     
circuit  (operating  from  the  signal  coming  from  the  pick-up)  and      
condenser discharge circuit. 
 

HT coil 
 

Consists of primary and secondary windings. 
 

Spark plug 
 

Champion A5 YC  or:  NGK B8EA 
 
The  ignition  advance  cannot  be  adjusted  because  there  aren’t  any 
adjustment devices. 
If the ignition advance is faulty, check the ignition control unit, ignition 
coil and alternator; replace any defective parts.
