Default Re: HD Setting Points - Timing marks both just before view

That PrincessAuto module isn't anything new or special, they have been around since the 1990's. I don't think they will work on our carts because we are using what is called a battery ignition. Those modules are designed for magneto ignitions which are commonly used on machines that don't have a battery or electrical systems per say at all.

IF you look at the diagram that was posted above you can see its a magneto system. If you think about it if you literally remove the points on our engines how will it know when to fire the spark? With the magneto that only happens once per rev so it knows when it gets voltage from the mag its supposed to spark. We don't have a mag so no reference when to spark.
