External Ignition Coil

[mswyka]

Good morning.  I am checking to see if anyone knows a source for new Intruder/Invader external ignition coils?

The coil on our pink sled was dead and I have gone searching through my usual sources and am either coming up with no listing or no stock. 

Are others seeing this same thing?

Hi Mark, I have lots of cars Mark if you need one

 Like many things during this pandemic they seem to be non existent.

  There are some options

 I know of a few that have successfully used a Polaris Indy CDI/Coil unit on these engines.

I have a Polaris cdi that I will be installing on my Invader.  A reputable engine builder recommended it for a better timing curve.  It requires moving the stock stator plate significantly.

It will be interesting to hear how that works out.

 A Polaris CDI unit gives a similar timing curve to a 82-84 Liquifire or a 4/6.

He built a standard Invader motor with Polaris CDI, custom heads, porting, and 4/6 pipes that ran mid 80s HP on the dyno with a nice broad power curve.

Yeah, should be similar to the Liquifire, but the 4/6 uses an older cdi similar to the old arctic cat.  Many swap them out for Invader heads and ignition for an improvement.

I now have an external ignition coil on "backorder."  I am told that delivery will be in March.  We will see how that works out.

I'm sure I have a good used coil if you need one.

Coils finally arrived!

[Interceptor398]

That took a while!

I think some of the 2 stroke Kawasaki motorcycles used these coils to

Better late than never.
