    Bikes Ignition Box Problems????

    I am still having problems with my bike losing a cylinder or two. At idle it seems fine. I took the cover off the ING Box and it looks really bad. What does everyone thing?





    Thanks.

    I would take a toothbrush and contact cleaner to it and clean that crap off it and re-heat any bad looking joints.

        Thanks but it looks like the pickup coils are flaky.

          My wife cleaned it up and it looks new again.

            Bill, you are lucky to have a wife that fixes all your electronic stuff.
