Dizzy cap damage to electrodes?
Posted: Fri Oct 23, 2015 4:33 pm
Hi All
Over the last couple of weeks the plus 2 has been getting progressively harder to start (used to start straight away using the 4 pumps of accelerator, no choke, turn the key method).
I'm just starting to check for the issue and have come across the first thing that I need the mighty forum members to assist with! The dizzy cap electrodes look 'newly' badly worn. Picture below. I'm running the red rotor arm which has been in for about 10 months. I'm guessing that this could be the reason eg not a good enough connection to send the electricity to the plugs. I do have another dizzy cap but am a tad skeptical about replacing because of the potential 'damage' caused by the rotor arm!
Your thoughts are appreciated!
Cheers
Gareth
