I missed your question, the ones i tried were not adjustable.

What you describe in post#22 is exactly the problem i had and tried a couple of different ones with the same result. I didnt really try any further. Harvey Spooner on U- Tube has videos showing how to make them out of GY6 CDi he installs everything in a box with D Batterys and calls it a portable CDI. Very interesting Videos.

Ha.. Ok. Well done. "Perseverance always wins, giving up never does.".

If you have a timing light check the timing. It could be too advanced or too retarded, but we might be able to get it right by swapping wires ..

Thanks to all for the help and advice. (pics, and if I can, video ,to follow).. Might take a day or two to clear out the "honey do" list and get a chance to have a boo at it. First thing ( job #1 ), is find the oil leak that is piddling out some VERY expensive Amsoil onto my garage floor. It's leaked a drop or two, here and there, but this is new, and, obviously serious. Both to "Suzie", and my wallet. It's under the rear of the bike, but seems to be coming down from the other side of the skid pan. I can't see the source .... yet.. Girlfriend says it's from switching from Dino oil to a high end synthetic.. I washed the crud out of wherever it was that stopped it from leaking.. CRAP!! No matter what the cause, it's a PITA!! There should be a thread ... " So... how much did the "free" ATV cost you, before you were happy with it?".
