DA 100 Ign problem?

[FastnLow]

I have been running my DA 100 without a dead stick for at least 4 seasons, until recently. It fires up no problem, Revs up no problem, as soon as I get airborn sputter, sputter,pop and dead. I have completely checked the entire fuel system and changed the igniton switch/ battery and plugs plus checked all the wireing for damage and bad connections. I believe through the endless ours of trouble shooting I have eliminated most of the small simple stuff that could be wrong. What I did notice was my plug boots were pretty cooked inside. So I'm thinking of ordering a new ignition module. Right move? Will the timing on the new module be right or will it require adjustment.

Your new ignition should be ready to go once you get it. As long as you don't move the sensor on the hub.

Thanks Vic! I'm also contemplating a rebuild of this engine as I said it has 4+ seasons of hard flying on it (Lead Thumb). So I'm wondering if DA makes a rebuild kit or if it's better to get them to do it? What are my options? Cost?

I would send it to DA and while you are at it send the old ignition as they can test it for any problems.
