Cuore CDI

[jiggerzzzz]

Assalam o Allikum

A few days back my boss who also happens to own a cuore got the point contact system (how he mentioned it) to CDI. He says the Pick and over all consumption has increased a considerable bit.
Has some one done this or knows about it. is it good any affects on the engine; Bad affects to be precise.

Secondly can anybody guide me to a good Tuner for Cuore in Pindi or Islamabad. I was running on NGK Irradium plugs, i took it for a little tune up and toyota Islamabad took them out and blamed the plugs for the point contact kit burn out. anyways now the stock plugs are crap. The car is not running properly im hating it.
Feels like no matter how much i floor the paddle it still does not find the power. I have to lower the gear whenever climbing up a slope. CNG consumption is still ok but absolutely not performing how a cuore should perform... Same goes for Petrol.
The Islamabad Motor guys have already adjusted the tappets (a pain itself since the engine is making tak tak tak noise). So any good locations for tuners especially for Cuore.

Thanks in advance

Stock local model of Coure has Point contact type ignition system so ur Boss must have got that replaced with CDI/Electronic system. Which will definaltely add value to over all perfamance of cars as it eliminates Spark fouling & needs of contact cleaning & adjustment.

cool... so i think itll be safe then...

the contact point burning out leads to two things to inspect.

very low impedance ignition coil without resistor is installed
the installed capacitor in the low current circuit is faulty.

If your car is not picking up speed like it should, inspect and adjust the following

dwell angle - this is set by moving the point assy towards or away from the cam in the distributor - the ideal gap is 0.45mm - a sliding fit not dragging.

the contact points should be degreased of its dressing prior to installation.

the centrifugal advance mechanism should be free to move

the vacuum advance plate should be free to move too.

verify the ignition timing by a strobe light with main vacuum pipe removed from advance diaphragm.

It will function normally after that.

lastly let me point out that it is not a CDI system its called a breakerless ignition, it uses a pulse generator and ignitor to switch on/off the ignition coil.

A CDI system actually uses a capacitor in the system to energize the coil.

which iridiums were u using?model?can be wrong plugs

[Xulfiqar]

how can that affect a contact points assembly?

@ poster. First of all brother. Toyota islamabad workers really s**k in adjusting tappets. I also have cuore and i gave the car to my driver for 5000km oilchanges etc. they adjusted tappets and charged 500 rs and engine was giving tak tak noise. I myself took it back to dealership and said to adjust its tappets again. and the worker who adjusted tappets first said .Sir gari thori chalay gi to khud awaz band hojae gi. lol. They took an hour to adjust them without any noise. i was really pissed off. Go and inspect ur car in toyota islamabad and check each n every thing rather than sitting in waiting room n having a cup of tea :).

^^ yaar i did... i was standing right next to it and the fact that i had no other choice since somehow automatically the RPM shot up..... so they didnt give me muc of a choice... they said not until u get the tappets adjusted the RPM wont be fixed... anyways i believe the plugs were ok as well i cant remember the model but i ran em from 11000 kms to 52000 kms and they worked magical.

Lekin im not opting for toyota motors those guys dont know wht they are doing... i tried toyota rawal as well same stuff no idea of wht they have to do or want to do......thats why im just looking for someone who can tune the car properly back to normal..... i still have about a months time till i go back home.

so for one im going to look more into the CDI stuff but in the meanwhile i want to get the car fixed as well....

if the car can operate fine on a contact point system then you need to get them to dig whats wrong with it - and why is it not functioning.

If the dealership are lunatics - find a place that can diagnose it correctly. The problems can range from valve seat burnout from running valve clearances too tight, and the distributor jamming.

the problem of tuk tuk can be due sterring or damaged bushes..

Dear can we call it digital distributor or does it worth installing as averg and perfomance ?
