thanks Rocket its really appreciated when I get some positive feedback . Glad they were helpful. I have a more current channel that I use now at czcams.com/video/wlGqt46wi_4/video.html John Cooper
hey Rocket thank you for taking the trouble to thank me I can't tell you how much I appreciate that . Its a lot of work producing videos but if it helps one person its worthwhile. I hope you get a chance to ride your bike this summer. Johnnyxs
So your setting the engine to TDC then lining the mark on the rotor up with the full advance mark on the stator and making sure that you can see a white dot from one of your magnets (where the points used to be) through the timing slot on the new igntion plate? Is this correct
I have a PMA so the stock advance marks aren't there. I used a degree wheel to set at 35* according to what I've found on the "net. As Boyer says, time at FULL advance.
Hi, I installed the same boyer box and the full advance mark is the line on the left at the end of the plate not the one that you are pointing in the video. Regards. Jacques
you'll love it.... spot on ignition at all throttle positions. Don't forget to watch out for my error in the video. You need to set the Boyer up to max advance which is the mark furthest from TDC not closest as I said in my vid. Post a vid when you get it running. JohnnyXS
great choice you'll not regret it. Don't forget to watch out for the full advance mark on the stator . I made a mistake in my video . The correct full advance mark is detailed in the text below but ping me if you are not sure. Stick a video up when you get it running
Jaques thank you for your comment. You are quite correct ! In the video I am pointing to a partial Advance mark at Idle . Thats the problem with trying to view things through a camera whilst recording narration if you are not paying attention. The full Advance mark is the very first line that the mark on the Rotor comes to when rotating the rotor (crankshaft) anti-clockwise ie the line to the far left on the Stator Thanks for correcting me..
The motor was NOT set at full advance on the compression stroke ( note at end of video the inlet tappet began opening the valve when tightening the rod nut).This motor will not start/run,probably result in a massive backfire!
you idiot ! this motor started first time and has been running perfectly for 8 years. If you had bothered to read the comments and text and watch the other videos you would have known that
NOTE: Set the Rotor mark to the Full Advance mark on the Stator..... ie the far left mark.. NOT the stator F mark as shown in the video.
Thanks. Much easier to follow than the printed instructions.
thanks Alan glad it was helpful
The printed instructions might as well not even come with the product! They are terrible
Definitely the mark on the far left
no s*** Sherlock ...........I think I pointed out 10 years ago 1st post below

thanks you very much for share this video
thank you for your feedback it means a lot to know it has helped someone.
how to set Pick-up coil with the Magnet ignation timing ??
Thank you, cheers!
thanks Mick apologies for showing the wrong advance mark in my video. it should be the furthest advance mark before TDC not the closest.

Hi,
