    Generating an ignition spark with no ecu

    This is a great idea and something I hadn't looked at. Thanks.

    Generating an ignition spark with no ecu

    I don't want to use the existing ecu because its the size of a brick and I have nowhere to hide it as this is a custom bike. I never thought this was going to be easy! :)

    Generating an ignition spark with no ecu

    Thanks for the replies, yeah I guess this might seem like an odd thing to be doing but it keeps me occupied. I am still looking for a solution but also looking at the DynaTek offering, thanks for the link. Any more input here is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Daniel.

    Generating an ignition spark with no ecu

    So I love carburetor engines, I know about carbs and I kind of like the traditional look of it. This is a project I am working on using a Triumph Daytona engine from 1997, it was designed as an injection engine but I am trying to run it from a carb. I know this may sound a little crazy but...

    Generating an ignition spark with no ecu

    I wonder if anyone can advise me on a project I am working on. To cut a long story short I have an engine that I am converting from injection to carburetor. My question is how do I produce a timed spark without using the ecu? From the research I have done I should be able to use a separate...

    Blank Installation manager

    Hi, thanks for your reply. My HDD failed so I lost everything that I didn't back up, so at least I have my data. This must be a common problem as a lot of people seem to have it. No-one seems to have a solution however. Cheers Daniel.

    Blank Installation manager

    I am trying to install SW 2013 and all I get is a blank installation manager. It worked fine until I replaced my hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7, now I can't install SW which means I cannot work. Please help. Daniel.

    Failing at a swept cut

    I am trying to cut a mould round this circular table top. I understand that I need a swept cut to do this but I am having trouble. I have got as far as drawing the cut shape on the plane but I can't get SW to select it as the profile, let a lone work out how to give it the path! Any help is...

    Not sure how to get these two parts to fit together.

    Thank you for both your replies. It is clear I need to know more about this program as I do not understand either answer. Can either of you maybe recommend a youtube video that will show me how to achieve that you suggest? Many thanks for your interest all the same. Thanks Daniel.

    X Y Editable dimensions gone

    When I first started using solidworks, say I was sketching a rectangle, I would have the x and y coordinates so that I could just type in a number and it would jump to that dimension, I seem to have lost that feature and I can't find a way to get it back. Thanks Daniel.
