Revainrating 3 out of 5

Cheap replacement part with poor quality control

The product came quicker than I expected, unfortunately when I opened the package I noticed that one of the connector pins was not installed correctly. It was lower than the other 5. I would like to photograph it as it shows poor quality control. I was able to pull the pin out to the same height as the other pins. I connected the CDI as I had already disassembled the car. It started right away but noticed that the high oil temp light didn't come on when I turned the key. I've tried several times, every time it doesn't flash when I turn the key. I ran my car for about 5 minutes and the high oil temp light came on. I parked the car and turned the key. The high oil temp light was on all the time but was very dim. I changed the oil and filter and let the car cool down. After a few hours, the problems with high oil temperature, which caught fire when turning the key and then caught fire after a few minutes of operation, remained the same. I bought a CDI box from Ricks and plugged it in and it worked perfectly. On a positive note, he came quickly and made me aware that I didn't have to disassemble the car and replace the igniter.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Modern
