XS650 Addict
I've got an '82 that I'm hardtailing. I just attempted to start a couple of days ago and found I had no spark with the culprit being an open coil on the pickup. I thought about putting something out there in the classifieds about needing a pickup coil, but I still have no idea if the TCI is even operable. It seems my best route would be to go ahead and jump into the Pamco even though it's more cash than I wanted to have to spend to get this motor to fire.
I also have a motor from a '78 with points and I scavenged the advance rod out of it...can't get the bushings out though.
It seems like I can go this route:
New Hall effect Pamco with electronic advance from Mikesxs for $189.95
60degree rotor for $34.95
Advance rod bushing for $4.50 but I'm not sure if I need 2 or 3...the kits he sells look like they all have 3 in them but it says in the description that 2 are required.
This seems to be all I need since I have the advance rod assembly from the other motor, but again I'm new to the xs650 and especially to the Pamco ignition.
Any help or advice on this would be appreciated. I emailed Pete Thursday but haven't heard back yet. I'd like to place and order and get this thing to fire sooner than later.
any other ideas I'm all ears!!!
