Hi folks
The lambretta d is starting to play up with the “Marelli” woes, fine starting, usually second kick, runs fine until approx 5 minutes of running, then misses and pops. Mimicking timing issues.
Points, condenser, plug, ht lead, have been replaced, wiring has been checked for breaks,timing has been treble checked and is spot on.
Now I could replace with a new marelli coil from casa, but that is £60 which could be spent towards an electronic system.
I know some of you are running electronic ignition on the d’s And ld’s. But the cost for the electronic systems for d’s and ld’s is twice the price for other lambretta models so therefore the main questions are:
1. What electronic systems are you running, Ducati, casatronic? And what is the feedback?
2. Have any of you managed to make your own electronic ignition using Parts from later models, and how did you do it? As I have a working electronic stator from an early li, I would be interested if I could utilize it.
Regards
Jim
