Evening all, I've been having issues with possible pick up misalignment. I have 3 stators to choose, 2 bgm v2/3 and a sil, all 3 have good readings on multimeter and I've 2 flywheels. I've also put a external pick up on. External pick set up is spot on and revs perfect when strobed. Tried all 3 stators with bgm flywheel and under strobe the timing mark wanders,like its pick up failure or misalignment mmm. Try stators with sil flywheel and 2 bgm stators still fail but sil works. Right I'm think I must have low pick ups on bgm stators, wrong. Measured pick ups and they all measure roughly the same height. Even so I try adding laminates to raise pick up, still no success. Add another then another until pick up box is now touching flywheel when tightened down. By this stage the big hammer needs to be hidden as I'm getting right pissed off. Sil stator and flywheel back on to see if I can see pick up alignment, although it revs out ok I can see it's not perfectly in line and the stator is sitting high.
I've a new scootopia mag housing in my scooter so I measured the internal depth from where the stator plates sit to the end of the crank taper. Then I measured the old sil mag in the old engine. The scootopia 1 is higher meaning the stator sits higher in the flywheel. That's how I'm reading it, so I now have to drop the height of the pick up to use with the bgm flywheel.
Anybody had this happen before? Any suggestions on how I go about it? File stator lugs down by the 1mm difference in both mag? Send mag back and use sil one off other engine?
Bgm stator worked perfectly fine with the bgm flywheel on the old sil mag, that's why I couldn't understand why it wasn't working correctly.
Cheers if you can help me please.
