Hello,
Im bringing this thread back to add my 2 cents worth. Hopefully im on to something here.
I tried to get one of my 185's going yesterday but, lo and behold no.... spark.
My coil tested bad. So, I started sluething around the internet and I found some interesting bits. It turns out our Bosch ignition systems were used in Puch mopeds.
I believe this is our ignition coil.
And this is our flywheel BUT i cant read my Bosch part # for comparison and some come with different wattage. Could anyone check the numbers for me?
This link has full mag systems and cdi systems. I have yet to measure the taper/shaft size on my 185 but I am assuming the crank is too big for these flywheels. Any one know our taper?

This link shows common moped taper sizes. We want Puch.

The scooter guys are doing lots of retrofits on these cdi systems. Their answer is to simply machine out a new taper in the flywheel, cut a new keyway and bam, good to go. we Any machinest could do that. If our taper is the same as Puch then a whole WORLD of bolt on possibilities opens up. They have got some pretty trick aftermarket stuff.
The Ducati ignition unit that Wildfire provides was used on the Puch Korado 80-82
The numbers match and I found a pic of one installed. I couldnt find a source but others say they have. This could also be a source for that elusive internal ignition coil as well.
Finaly, the Pièce de résistance. 6 hours later, I found these and Im going to get one.

Sensorless, bolt on CDI for use in our magneto, no modification required. Yay.
They come in clockwise and counterclockwise. So, does that mean looking at the mag end or pto end?
Thats all I got. Pretty cool eh? Thats all I got. Love to hear someone was still interested in the project and get some feeback.
Thank you,
Joshua
