Thanks everyone for the help with my bike, I know I have been posting quite a bit in 2 stroke area.
My bike was having numerous problems.
Worst being magneto failure over and over.
I replaced the Chinese plug with a NGK BPR6HS - works great.
I couldn't get it to stay in the boot as its a different sized plug head but I used my tin snips to cut the old chinese plugs head part off where there was thread and it looked like the end of a screw and I screwed it in the end of the ngk and stuck the boot on it and it grasps that asif it was the end of the old china plug.
Replaced the CDI as before I cut my boot off - was probably helping fry the magneto as there is a resistor in there that protects the rest of the ignition system from any back fire / miss fires etc from the spark plug.
I added an expansion chamber (a new exhause) that literaly made a worlds difference. I just started her up and wow I must say, this and the NGK plug are heaven. I can go 10-15kmph up steep hills now and it feels like its alot more zippier on flats.
Only thing I have to fix now is the chain tension when I turn the rear wheel goes tight loose tight loose. The sprocket isn't lined up due to the hole being a ****y center cut from China. - Someone told me how to fix this. You simply turn the wheel to the tightest chain tension, tighten the tensioner even more, make sure the wheels off the ground, now loosen the bolts around the rear sprocket and spin the wheel. Apparently this will even itself out. I am going to try right now.
Cheers and many thanks !
