are you experiencing a "wet" plug situation where as the spark tracks down the most direct route when the pug is in the head,but seams to spark normally in your hand?ive had this on a similar spec ts1,changing the plug would cure the problem for about 20 miles then re-occur

STATOR PLATE! most probably the black box/pick up
have repaired a couple ,last one going to beatsugar, the stator had come loose wearing the black box/pick up,it would run fine untill stopped, then wouldn't spark, but all readings were fine with multimeter :|

Fires up again after 2 or 3 minutes without changing anything, then runs for another 2 to 3 miles before stopping again. He tried a new CDI yesterday and it got him home about 8 miles without cutting out. I'll report back later if it's run ok today.
So far all the problems have gone now he's fitted the new CDI.

Well i read it as a simple fun question, not a dealer trying to get free help FFS. A mate last week in France had a similar problem. Changed all the electrics and then found the reed valves (i have no idea what they are or what they do :oops: )had disintergrated and the small screws had come out.........Before the weekend i would have said it was the stater plate as i had similar symptons on the way too lincoln last year.

I don't see any problem with asking help to diagnose here. We are in the Lambretta tech section, no?
