hey all. ive recently installed accuspark electronic dizzy in my esky, and its shit itself i followed the instructions( sparky by trade so know my way around a multi meter) any way i whipped it out today cos i couldnt get a spark. gapped my trusty old lucas and whipped it back in, got it timed @ 10-11deg on the markings. all goess well its idling ok. bit to lumpy.

heres the drama i rev it when warm up to 4000ish, and it looses all power and dies. jump it again and head home now when it gets to 3500-4000 revs it coughs and tries to die. obviously momentum keeping it running.

 

any clues?

 

its a 1600 xflow, blue printed, twin dellorto's

I think earth problem, I had a similar problem where the earth would get hot because it was so crap and break down due to resistance above a certain rpm, sorted the earth and problem went away. It could be a little hard to track because its only when hot/high current but just follow all the wires meticulously
