xivlia's thread of nc30 problems and questions

[Drunkn Munky]

it was working perfectly fine before the starter clutch went dead...

Im not taking the piss but thats the funniest thing ive heard all day

[xivlia]

but, your missing the point munky... it was working in a rideable condition, something is clearly not set right.. there is no spark. im searching my brain on what i could of missed out... but ive got everything connected properly.... the only thing could be a faulty CDI.... has anyone got one for sale?

I've just read through this whole thread and I can only come up with 3 things.

1. You are unluckiest man alive to have so many problems on a bike which is so easy to get running.
2. You have buggered up everything you have touched and your going round in circles.
3. It's a wind up!!

I'm inclined to go for 3! Come on own up who is it??

[xivlia]

a wind up? why would i be winding you guys up? i have more important things to do than wind you guys up for 70 fucking pages. has ANYONE got a cheap CDI for sale? the cheapest one on ebay is 35 buy it now with best offer. can anyone beat that?

Have you confirmed that power and ground are reaching the ignition unit?

[porndoguk]

i can sell you an ignitech for £120 delivered, with leads, its the v80 model,

failing that contact geoff33 he used to sell them for about £25 which is the going rate

[xivlia]

magg, what can i do to confirm that the power and ground is reaching the ignition unit? if there are tests i can do. please do tell. and Porndok, i dont want to spend 120 quid on a ignitech plus i dont need a programmable cdi when i am running standard carb setup. i

First check:
1. +ve multimeter probe on ignition unit black/white wire, -ve probe on ignition unit green wire.
2. Ignition switch in the ON position and run/stop switch in the RUN position.
3. Should measure 12 volts DC.

Second check:
1. +ve multimeter probe on ignition unit black/white wire, -ve probe on any chassis earth point.
2. Ignition switch in the ON position and run/stop switch in the RUN position.
3. Should measure 12 volts DC.

Second check to confirm that ignition unit has a earth return to chassis.

No-one is this unlucky.

Im with no. 3 too

In the event that its not tho sit down and think about it, if it was in a rideable condition before you started messing around with the starter clutch then its something you've done whilst sorting the problem. We can all sit here and suggest you do this or you do that but we dont know what you've messed with or how you went about it.

Read the appropiate section in the haynes manual, understand it, take it apart following the manual and then reassemble following the manual. Do that with everything you've touched on the bike (that might take some time lol) then report back
