welcome millietant Good intro, me and blackhat are also 70's biking dinosaurs

Just ordered a set of these if anyone else is interested http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/9-PIECE-METRIC-SPANNER-SET-NEW-/350416094939?pt=Women_s_Shoes&hash=item51966d46db sharper eyed members may spot they are listed in category eBay UK Tests - DO NOT BID however I have bought some and have heard that other people have received theirs without a problem.

Nope its the biggest sig I ever did see, even for a pic its too big as it doesnt fit the screen

Welcome imkev you know...your sig...is way...too big

Hi is there a drain screw / plug at the bottom of the carb float bowl?...worth a shot, it might be water in there. si IF there is and IF you use it you must put the fuel tap to PRI(ME) to re fill the carb after, that is assuming it IS a vacuum controlled fuel tap. All a bit of a guess really as I dont know too much about jog's ...Paul

It will be 6 wires mark part# 3J0 85540 20 and I still say everything else should be eliminated first, but i will add that Ian was a little bit 'economical' with what he said and for all I know his could be missing

Thats cheap, free delivery too Got a link?

Greetings Ian. I dont know of anywhere as an alternative to ebay but will have a look around. Are you aware that it is the same CDI as a later version DT175? and have you done all the checks because replacing the CDI is the very last thing to do if you have no spark. CDI's can be costly http://cgi.ebay.fr/boitier-CDI-Yamaha-DT-125-MX-DTMX-86-91-neuf_W0QQitemZ140476723423QQihZ004QQcategoryZ117551QQcmdZViewItem ...Paul

The top picture with the very small coil on it, that's a pulser coil as the flywheel turns it gives the CDI a signal when to discharge its stored energy from its in built capacitor CDI is an acronym for 'Capacitor Discharge Ignition' apparently your bike doesnt have a pulse coil and the CDI is triggered by the strength of the voltage from the source coil

1:51 am yeah Michael its a bugger when you cant sleep because of a weak spark eh? i must admit i was confused for a while as this bike doent actually have a pulser coil does it? The reading is much higher than 180 Ohms as is often the case with dirty or corroded contacts. I assume you checked it via the black and black/red at the loom socket? The black is bolted to the chassis of the stator plate so check you have a dead short from the black at the socket to the stator plate, and then to the coil grounding lug...you should have. Typically the black wire will be screwed to the back of the stator plate and the coils will be grounded to the stator plate via their mounting pillar bolts. Have a look at the pictures here at the top of the first pic you will see how the coils are grounded under the mounting screws and how the black wire is terminated to the back of the stator plate Although they are not pictures of your stator assembly ( DT175MX ) so the final concusive test of the coil would be to check between the black/red wire and the coil grounding lug beneath the mounting screw. ...Paul I expect yours will be similar

Haha where do you dig them up from

Hi Nicky this is such a common problem with any bike. what I do is select neutral from second just before I stop. i realise this may be contrary to what a learner may be taught but i'm not a learner. Welcome by the way ...paul

It's a batman mask john

Heythuysen. Merry Xmas everyone.

yeah, had a look at his neg feedback, ok he has'nt got a lot of it but his response is poor, theres more pmsl's and lmao'fs than on the DTR forum

no mate its just well overpriced junk! The original thread was NOS buy it now for £130 a headlight grille for my bike. The seller had bought it not long before for £45. Just thought i'd resurrect the thread

more expensive patina http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/YAMAHA-DT125-DT125-MX-DT125LC-FRONT-WHEEL-/220701831960?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item3362dab318
