MOPED ARMY

Iridium plug, resistor. NGK resistor plug cap and whatever wire came with the CDI.

Maybe to much resistance with the plug and boot is messing with the box??

Kinda what mine does. Next time I'm adapting a HPI mini rotor to mine.

I wonder, is it just people with the Puch MVT that are having this problem or are Moby/Peugeot users also getting this, and is just with the Millennium, or is the Premium also suffering?

Pug 103 w/ millennium MVT

Would only idle ok, erratic spark over entire powerband

Went back to stock stator and point setup with coil running fine now

Peugeot 103 millinimum MVT. Ran great for the Sunday ride at the second R.I.P. Rally in Nashville last year and then good for another 2 weeks. Now it will not idle at all and will only run at WOT after a push start. As soon as I let off the throttle it dies. I think the advance circuit has burnt up in the box.

MVT Digital on a Peug. no problemos ...yet haha.

i have a MVT Digital waiting to go on a puch, i can report on that when it warms up.

Ok, so I finally got a reply from the company and this is what it said:

Yes you are right , the timing of the ignition DD is jumping from 2000 for 20 ° to 40 ° at 3000

it's true , a DD is a racing ignition and a racing 2 strokes is not used at 2000 rpm .

if you whant use it at very low rpm of 2000 the best it's to order a analogic version premium with a diagram rj 51 x

the timing will accept your request.

have a nice year 2012

So I guess the Digital direct model is supposed to have a 20 deg. timing jump between 2k and 3k rpms. Meaning if you set your timing to run at 3k at 18 btdc then at normal idle rpm it's jumps to 2 atdc, killing the motor. Or you set it at idle at 18 btdc and then as soon as you go it jumps to 38 btdc and puts hole in your piston. Making this cdi a clutch pulley only cdi. I really wish they would say things like that in the instructions. A wooden box is nice but rather have a photocopied set of instructions with information on it.

I'll have to check where mine is set, yeah the wood box was hilarious- anyone know if MVT produces the Artek one as well? they seemed almost the same, i dont think pat finished that yet..

Or is that just with the Digital Direct?

these crazy, light, expensive ignitions are for the track. not for miles upon miles of blasting wot. you guys are simply blowing them up. i had one but swapped it for this...

summer cant come fast enough!

Thats the hpi mini

I bought an MVT for my Grand prix. The taper was off center so it wobbled really bad. I ended up lathing it true and making a custom taper shim. No it is working fine, havent had any other issues.

Well the universal cdi box just may be the answer. It plugs right in to the mvt and sparks decent but not as good as the mvt box does.

Timing now set at 1.5mm btdc and running like SHIT so still not fixed, but at least its running (kinda).
