I recently had my cdi die on me so while testing to diagnose the problem I swapped in a few spare parts to make sure what the issue was. Afterwards I replaced the cdi with an exact replacement but the cable on the ignition that goes to the spark plug boot was looking a little rough so i trimmed about and inch off. Now my ped runs but poorly a little sluggish on acceleration and will die when the throttle decelerates and when i try to keep up the rpms it just bogs ad if the timing is off. Could this be a symptom of the cable being shortened or is there a completely different issue.

:welcome: to the forum.
The length of the spark plug wire doesn't matter within reason (don't run it a mile). Could have bad connection there. Spark plug boot could be loose. Check that and all connections in the ignition system. Make sure you've got the coil grounded well.

Yea, I would check the boot is snug, even retrim a tad more and see if you can get a better connection to the wire/boot. Make sure your screw is centered to the wire part.

Thanks for all the info guys. I think I have found the problem. The cdi I i purchased from spec cycles appears to be for a 150cc not a 50cc so yeah bit of a head scratcher since they are completely identical other than the part number which is impossible to find.
