My sparkplug boot has came off several times . Well it got to where it does it every mile instead once every 4 months or so . It has always been where I had to unscrew the sparkplug cap but somehow the clip broke and I had to replace the cap on the plug and jam in on . It still would come off and fizzle at times . The other night it died while it was running so good . I pushed it home . I had thought I had some water in the carb since I was riding in the rain with a Uni . No problem I drained out the carb like I have before and it only fizzled a few times . I changed out the plug and it ran for a minute then died . I removed the plug and put in in the boot and grounded it . At first no spark and after wiggling it I saw a weak spark and there is mild charring around the coil . I wanted to replace the wire before this happened but it seems like it was made into the coil unlike cars that the wire can be detached . I always hated the boot design as it never did fit that good . I looked on Scrappys page and saw an OEM coil is 14 while their red hot coil is only ten more . I figure since I have a BBK it could use a lil more spark . I have changed out coils on cars and I know the HP coils did fire better than the old stock one . I made a thread long ago about Scrappys 2T red coil to see if anyone had used it but I did not get a reply from anyone who has used it . So I guess I may be the test pilot LOL unless some one can suggest a better one that is not over priced . Here it is after you scroll down www.scrappydogscooters.com/50cc_2stroke_Performance.html

I'd say go for the performance coil for the extra ten bucks. More spark and probably a better boot. It can't hurt any just maybe make it run better. I have not used one though.

My stock coil corroded inside of the cap . Today I ordered the red hot coil from Scrappys and will post how it does in two or so .

I just got my coil and it appears to be a better made item compared to the stock one . I hate the crappy boots on the China coils . Will put it on after it warms up a bit and report back on how it works today
