Hello this is my first post. I recently purchased and installed the ( Basic Pamco High Output Electronic Ignition Kit + E-Advancer) kit from mikes on my 76 xs650C. I timed it with a timing light just like the points and the bike starts well and idles i can see the advance is working with the light but at 3000 rpm it starts to break up very badly and stalls . I contacted mikes asking for help and they eventually replaced the pick up and the advancer unit i'm still having the same issue. i have the coil mounted to the frame with a plate and grounded, all wires first time around where soldered and shrink wrapped i am using the stock 76 charging system with newer brushes and battery. So far i have tried disconnecting the charging system and using a battery charger neither has helped also the first unit would sometimes back fire when kicking it over so violently it blew my carbs out the boots . I was riding the bike a lot on the points before the swap so i don't really suspect carb issue .Thank you
