"there are capacitors available that will work, I have some at home, but I'm working away until the w/e before I can confirm details"
Would be good if you could let me know if you remember ..... quite interested in this now for some reason.
Is there any way to search posts so i can check out what you've done twin??
thanks for the replies people

sorry to hijack the thread but,, Twin I've looked at some of your auto conversions top quality work sir, have you any exp with 4t autos. I've got an on/of going project with a skipper st motor but having an awful time with the wiring , I've got all new electrical components ( stator, regulator ,coil etc & an unimobilised malossi cdi unit) & a striped down st harness but still can't get it to spark any advice etc most appreciated :fb:

Have a look at burglar alarm batteries. They're quite small.

definatley interested in those capacitors though.....

first post on here and iv fixed my problem and learned something new!
glad i came here

What model's stator are you using?

its actually a Zip '50'

Ah, if it's a 7 wire type stator, then a capacitor, possibly, isn't going to be enough to allow the reg/rec to function correctly.
