    200x....pulse unit 180 degrees off?

    when my bike was running (lost spark ands waiting on stator) it would literally burn up plugs. it idle pretty good and ran ok when it had a new plug but after a few minutes of riding it got chopy and sluggish on acceleration. what i want to know is does this sound like syptoms from the pluse unit being off?

    It will run if it's a little off either way, but not 180 off, because there's a little magnet or something on one side of the rotor, and not the other that pick's up the 'pulse'. If it was 180 off it would not pick it up.

    This has happened to me several times.
