Ignition pickup coil part #

Postby Srinath » Thu Jun 27, 2013 2:42 pm

Can someone give me the part number of the ignition pick up mounted on the left crank case ?

My skorpion is a 2001 - Is it the same as the 2001 and later YFM660 (grizzly/raptor).

Thanks.
Srinath.

I was hoping to find a yamaha part number so I can cross refer to a later model something.
The MZ part number isn't helpful in finding what other bike had it.
I guess I am looking for an xtz parts fiche.
Cool.

Last year I did the whole run a magnet past and see the voltage thing. But it ran in october with all the predictability of a vegas jackpot. That then has not started since.
It has acted up whenever it got hot, and refused to start. I have pulled the carb apart thinking it was that, but I cant get spark.

I also replaced the transistor in the TCI when it died almost as spectacularly last spring.

Anyway I am going to check it with everything I can muster on it.

Anyway acting up when hot definitely points to ignition trigger, my GS500 many many years ago died with almost the same symptoms. Worse yet, it would start and run great, if you managed to get it onto a road where you can keep throttle above 5k, it will run great on both cyls. If you ever let it drop to under 5k, it will lose 1 cyl, never to get it back till it cools off completely.

My crank trigger needs checking for sure.

Cool.

OK man, 250 ohm on the nose ... WTH, how is it dead to the point it exactly is 1/2 ...

I guess I buy that one and go from there.

I'll have the part in the bike in a couple days.
But Is the part electrically right for a 2000 skorpion ?
I am already bothered by the fact I have 250 ohm on the original (even if it was bad how is it 250 ohm, not 0 or open or ...)
And the replacement is 500.

Since I cant get anything for the MZ specifially in the US ... I guess I am trying this ... and if it doesn't work, I'll get the ignitior box for the raptor too and give that a try.

Cool.

let me have the old one i want to take it apart and see what went wrong
if its a simple coil we may be able to rewind old bad ones with teflon coated wire
but that will cost more than buying a new one most likley
but the info will be priceless if the become nla

The new part will probably never become NLA. Its an 01+ raptor. If it works, It would be cool.
However the part is too small to be rewound I suspect.

I have not managed to get it to start after swapping the pickup coil.
Either I have a bad Ignitor box (and I have had those go, and have swapped transistors in them, in fact this one had a transistor swap 18 months ago, after which I did get it to run but would run a few mins and stall, and not start for hours after, till last oct I got it runnign and ran it 30 miles only to stall @ the off ramp and truck it home.
Anyway or I have a bad ignition coil ... or some where in between.
I'll check spark etc etc today.
Cool.

OK I have spark and its even blue in the shade of the sun (aka - not very dark).
I have compression. Its sucking and blowing well enough out the sparkplug hole and the thing smells like gas too.
Valves are adjusted right.
So that points back to carbs.

Sheesh ... I am so mad, I think I left out the air screws.

Cool.
