I try to get my head around this whole Iggy installation and want to make sure I got this right.
First I turn the crank clockwise till the piston reaches max. top (TDC? ) and set the measuring instrument to 0. Then once I reached that point I turn the crank counterclockwise till I reach the igniton mm number recommended for the cylinder. Once I reached that point I turn the Iggy until the markings align and tighten the Iggy.
Is that correct?
To setup the timing I can use either a dial clock, micro meter or the TDC wheel. Is that correct?

That's correct. Not sure if the MVT can run in either direction like mine, but if it can, make sure to use the correct timing mark lol.
I used a dial indicator with an adapter that screws into the cylinder head.

Your correct. It's trial and error. If you get it set the first try your lucky. Sometimes the settings will change just from tightening the flywheel down if not seated prior. Honestly though it's not that hard. If your getting a MVT the manual is wrong.

If your getting a MVT the manual is wrong. Manual is wrong? What do you mean exactly? I checked through the manual in 2 different languages and it says that I have to set it to 0.35mm for 70cc to 98cc and 0.4mm for 50cc. Now how many degrees is that on the degree wheel? Another thing I noticed is there is no groove for the little half moon shaped thing that sits on the crank.

Goshi says:
So the crank half moon thing is cleared. But what the hell is this 1mm before TDC? Did he mean 0.1mm instead of 0.35mm?
I just watched a video of a guy installing this to a Peugeot Speedfight 100cc MVT DD08 and he says he burned 2 pistons with the 0.35mm setting so he adjusted it to 0mm and had no issues after that. I guess this will be bike and setup specific?

The manual I had stated somewhere around 3.5mm before TDC. Where in reality anywhere between .6-.3mm BTDC is correct. Set your piston to TDC, rotate back your timing (.3-.6mm) install flywheel lining up the white timing marks on flywheel and stator plate, recheck, recheck again. From there you can use the slots to fine tune the timing +/- a few degrees.

I see.. thanks Ryan. My manual says 0.35mm so I guess I should be good there. spaz12 You know Goshi well, can you please get in touch with him somehow and ask him how this works "exactly". Goshi said: I have a relay that I got with the Prius water pump that I could use. I am not so savvy when it comes to wiring stuff but I can follow instructions.

I believe the relay is only needed for the Zuma that doesn't use a ground to stop. Corrosion has a nice write up on it at another site I'll try to find for you.

ryan_ott Looking at my wiring plugs I would need the MVT DD19 but I got the MVT DD06 cheap and according to Goshi it should work just fine if I can turn around the black/white wire. I found this video here that shows very well how a relay works and I think I get it slow by slow. Just wish I could use a degree wheel instead of a gauge that would save me some $$ but I guess I can add a few more items to the cart and make it worth the shipping cost.

tsimi, with the diagram that Ryan posted do you still need me to get a hold of Goshi?
