thanks for the info.
what i actually want to know is that, inside the dissy cap, there's five dots of metal there(one at the middle), which i think is use to distribute spark.
How does the spark from the middle be distributed to each of the four on the edge?
I guess there's something spinning according to the exhaust cam. I want to know what does this thing look like, I guess it would touch the middle dot, consider the middle one has got a spring holding it. and does it touch each of the dots on the edge too?
also the dots on the edge, are covered up with grey color stuff in my second hand dissy cap, should i clean this up to bare metal? and how?
Thanks.
