CDI is a standalone equipment...

what can see is a control unit for the electronic ignition, when SAM transplanted engine, obiviously he used the new engine's normal distributor, while the formen accidentally "profited" from the electronic distributor.

B310 electronic distributor can costs up to RM200 each second hand

no .. :)
when i change engine
the foreman told me 'ini enjin kosong saje'
so many things he said use from old engine
including distributor lor.. plug wire lor....
radiator lor..

even flywheel... he said use the one from my old engine
but i think he just simply answer that?
flywheel is the big disc that at the end of your engine?
i got saw that when i view the engine b4 transplant...
so.. i use back the electronic distributor i have


so.. how to connect that CDI thing leh?

all 4 wires
1 ground got ring connector so can connect to any point of car body.
than another 3 wire.. blue, yellow n green
i notice it is connector...
they all got 'female' type (metal that flat metal plug into)
only green color got 'male' type (flat metal)

anyone got idea?
what is the purpose of that thing?

i ask my dad
he also forget how to connect..
