You have a tight budget, but are now buying expensive Chinese crap charging and ignition parts??? HHB or TCbros or Mikesxs, they are all the same. They are making a big profits, selling poor quality parts, for high prices, to naive customers.
I see where you're going. You're going to spend a ton of money on crap parts, and still end up with nothing in the end.
3 years and still working on fundamental problems???
Good luck........................I can't offer anymore help.
