So last month bought a Pamco w/ E-Advancer/Ignition Coil from Mikes (14-0907) for my 81. Install went perfectly, no problems. Took it on a 1600 mile ride and it performed flawlessly for the first 1590 miles. It started misfiring and crapped-out soon there after, no spark. I tried everything that's suggested here. Tested and even tried a replacement coil, checked my voltage on the terminals, new plugs/wires, redid all my connections and tested them for continuity, checked my ground, checked for shorts... still no spark.
...so I emailed Mikes customer service and got a one line reply a few days later, "Sorry, there is no warranty on electrical parts."I also emailed and messaged Pete but he never responded...
Pete's site says that his systems comes with a two year warranty but I'm guessing that's only if you buy though his site (yamahaxs650.com) and not Mike's.
If that's the case I thought it was worth posting about it here. Hopefully this might help someone save $95.95 on a replacement advancer... If you're thinking about buying anything electrical avoid buying it from MikesXS if you can.
