Re: NO Spark UGH
I went with the zeel box for a couple reasons.. 1. It runs off the battery rather than the magneto. In my research i found the usual cause for cdi failure is a failed voltage regulator. I think when the regulator fails, the voltage isnt controlled which takes out the cdi. 2. The zeel can control the...

Re: NO Spark UGH
For sure, do all the checks. Check side stand sw, kill sw etc etc. I checked and rechecked 6 times before ordering the zeel box. Install of the zeel was super simple, i cut the stock plugs off and soldered and heat shrinked the new connections. It doesnt come with any connectors although i think the...

Re: NO Spark UGH
I just went through this same scenario. Bought an rz350. Chassis is 85, engine and harness is 84. It also had no spark, followed the manual and checked all components with a multimeter. Everything checked out correctly and following the manual it says if everything checks out, replace cdi box. Talke...

Re: Cylinder base gaskets
Ok just wasnt sure. There are no signs of any leakage at the base gaskets. Everything is dry, no signs of an air leak. Im getting the head checked for flatness so with the new gasket all should be fine then.
Thanks for all the replys,
Shane

Cylinder base gaskets
Hi all, Continuing on the burning coolant thread, could the base gaskets leaking allow coolant to get into the combustion chamber? Ive never had an RZ engine apart, im not sure if coolant circulates all the way to the bottom of the cylinders or not. I think it would, so i though possibly i should pu...

Re: Burning coolant
Yes i was gonna go with a yamaha part. Luckily my local yamaha dealer still has lots of rz stuff. Got a oem taillight assy still in the box and 2 carb rebuild kits. He has 2 NOS cdi boxes. Lots of little stuff..
Will check with them again. Thanks for the tips..

Burning coolant
Hi all, Got the zeel box installed and got the bike up and running. There is tons of white smoke and coolant coming out the exhaust pipes. Engine was fully rebuilt 5 yrs ago. I pulled the head off, the combustion chambers have coolant droplets all over. I dont see any issues with the head gasket. Ar...

Re: No Spark 85 rz350
Well, i really didnt mean it that way. With the Cad at barely around 70 cents. That $240 box cost about $425 by the time it got to me. But it was gonna cost me $300 Cad for a NOS box from the dealer. The Zeel i feel was the better deal. Now just get it painted to original and neaten up the wiring. I...

Re: No Spark 85 rz350
I found a 52y-50 cdi box for $200. Its a new one, not used. Is there a way to wire this cdi box in place of the 29k cdi box?
