Anyone done this successfully with an actual improvement to acceleration/idle? about how far did you move it which direction? i have the orange cdi which "advances" but its kinda hard to tell for sure on those Just a note VERY FEW of the CDI's that say they advance actually do. I do parts sales/Scoot repair and have tested many with an inductive Timing Light. Mark your flywheel with 'Sharpie Pen' Connect the timing light and give some throttle..watch to see if mark you made actually moves. Orange..black and the blue 'New Racing' CDI from different sellers showed different results. Most had no advance..3 I tried did truly advance..1 orange..1 black 1 'New Racing' CDi but 3 of the 'New Racing' blue CDI's were 10-12 degrees advance already at idle..and stand there through the whole rpm range. So before you adjust your timing manually. Make sure of what your CDI is doing before hand with a timing light. On my 2 stroke Minarelli we do not have a moveable pickup coil. So I drilled 2 holes in its mount and rotated it CLOCKWISE about 10 degrees. When I tested these CDI's in the pic...they actually have an advance curve. So I set my timing back and put one of these on. Ebay has them for 2 and 4 stroke engines and one wholesaler I deal with. Also tvacman on here has the one in the pic and this one in the link..Both actually have an advance curve. www.chinesepartswholesale.com/product_info.php?products_id=66934Glenn..  Attachments:
