Yeah..the bike came with it! I'm not sure if it's for cooling/lighten or if it was two different flywheels welded together. Regardless, it works!

Since my last posts i've done the following: Fixed charging system, cleaned and rewired PMA Replace reg with a PODTRONICS unit Converted to VM34s Replaced giant battery with a small .08ah and fabricated up a battery tray Bottom mounted headlight

Thanks Dave. I understand what TDC is and perhaps my terminology wasn’t quite correct when typing this out. When refering to visual TDC, i was meaning that it was a small amount of travel to the very top of the piston movement. I understand that i need to impede the piston before TDC and mark it...

Thanks Dave. Should this be done on the compression stroke or doesn’t it matter? How much difference should one expect between the two TDC markings? I’m going to check the pins tonight and insure they’re both in the right place

Thanks...apart from not having any TDC or timing marka (that i assumed would be easy...) the PMA has been great.

Thanks mate. I made sure to back the valves off fully and to make sure the piston stop didn’t hit them or go too deep into the cylinder to make a flase TDC reading. I spent some time doing this.

Mine has the woodruf key in place on the rotor.

I’m not sure what it is, but i feel like i’m overcomplicating this or just being plain stupid...perhaps both. Please help my sanity :( I’m trying to locate TDC on my bike that has a banshee PMA conversion where the PO kindly didn’t leave any markings. From finding TDC I will mark the timing...

Made a coil mount and attached the dual coil for soon arriving PAMCO....

might want to mount that regulator outside of the box, it needs airflow!

Thanks Pete. I tested it using your website method and it’s fine. I already have the rotor, should i get another or just get the plate? I’m in Australia so it will probally take a while to get here! Are there no other tests to confirm funtionality other than the spark test?

Hi again Pete. Tested the new coil and it tested fine (4phm and 22k, all others infinite) from your website test using old 5k caps. I have new ones on the way just in case. It’s wired as: Red/white power from kill switch and red from Pamco onto (+) coil terminal Green from Pamco onto (-)...

Good to know Pete. I wired it all up with a brand new Emgo dual coil and no spark, even when tested with the locating pin removed. I'm going to go through and test the coil again tonight based on your website. Are there other tests i can perform on the PAMCO through a multi meter to confirm...

Hi guys, got a PAMCO from a freind and i think it might be cooked. No spark and the board looks like it’s seen better days. Can you guys tell from the photo? I’m gettting 12v to the red wire there.

Now i'm confused! Everywhere I've looked, it has the multi meter test or the AC test when the bike's running. How should i test this with the 12V battery? Hook the battery up to one of the three wires and the test lamp on another, then cycle through the three like that?

Thanks for this TM, much appreciated. I just ordered a new PODTRONICS regulator that I hope I don't chew through as fast as the Chinese ones :s

BUMP

Hi all, I'm not getting any charge from my banshee PMA and hope you can lend some assistance. Pics attached. After testing my reg and my voltmeter throwing out some weird results, i tested the stator using a good VM at work. It's showing 0.05 ohm on all 3 yellow wires. Is that OK? The tests...

Hi all, my '79 has a PMA kit (off another brand bike) and i currently have a in-line fuse which has a built in LED running from my red power wire to my battery. When idling, that LED flickers on and off as if the PMA/Reg is pulsing power back to the battery. Is that correct? Another question...
