[C. Clark]

Hello,



I tried several test on the CDI, initially I did the 12 volt hook it up to a battery and ground and got the whine that it is allegedly supposed to do if working, second I hooked it up to the car taking care to connect all wires in the proper places, as you said the grounding is very important. I could get no spark from the unit, I did a resistance test over contact B and C and got a direct short, test from A to C seemed intermittent, so I guess the thing is faulty and was probably disconnected because it didn't work. I'm still interested in the whole CDI concept though, and as said before I will probably at some point get a modern version of the CDI unit. Thank you so much for all your interest and time spent trying to guide me through this process, it was greatly appreciated.

Frohliche Weihnachten,
Chas
