Kokusan Igniter - gs550T - dyna s replacement?

[canroc]

Hi,

It appears that the Igniter/Ignitor might be dead on my 1981 gs550T. The unit is labled "TR Igniter Kokusan". Anyone know if I can replace that and the signal generator with a Dyna S system?

Thanks.

Yes you can.

Yes, but even though it's Kokusan you still use the Dyna DS3-2 on all EI systems. The DS3-1 for Kokusan ignitions only refers to the early years of 550s and 750s using Kokusan points systems. Although the Dyna S only looks like the sig gen the igniter is "Built in" to that one part, as it connects directly to your coils.

Ok, thanks for the explanation.. Good to know there is a relatively inexpensive replacement to the ignitor.
