cobra Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I have an adventure f3+ motor (solo 210) the manual states that a 10K plug cap must be used or damage to the CDI will occur. when I bought it it had a 5K cap on the unit and a standard B8hs plug fitted. I have looked on the net and a 10K cap is proving very dificult to get hold of easy So would I be OK in using a 5K cap and a R resistor type plug to make up the 10K assuming the plug is a 5K suggestions?

alan_k Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Just stick with the 5K plug cap. As long as you have some resistance in line as opposed to none. Cheers, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bendmeroundthehedge Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Yes that will be fine. As they are in series, just add them together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 cheers, managed to get an NOS suzuki ts 125 cap off ebay, they are 10K, so will fit this 1 for now, but when that cap knackers up I will put the 5k cap n 5k plug in series. still not sure of the detriment it would cause by just having a 5k resistance instead of 10k though, anyone know why???
