Hi members, I have a 69 650 ss mercury. I have a Boyer Bransden micro mk 3, will this be compatible, or would a Trispark be more suited, any information would be appreciated.

Boyer is fine…
Only thing to watch out for with the Boyer Bransden Micro MKIII is the fact it needs a good, strong 12 volts.
If your battery dips under, you’ll have starting issues, and nasty kickbacks.
Other than that, you’re good to go!

Did you try the Tri spark?
I would like to use a Tri-Spark for my 650ss but they seem to be for the Atlas and later. If you’ve managed to use one then I’ll be interested to hear how you got on.

Yes, I used a Tri-Spark…
Yes, I used a Tri-Spark on a 650ss while I found a magneto and had it rebuilt.
I liked it so much, it stayed on the bike!
It made for a bike that was a piece of cake to kickstart, with zero chance of kickbacks and a superb idle.
Very happy!

Leaning towards trying a Tri-Spark on my Dommi 88. Thanks for the assurance. Also would like to know where you got your Cylinder Nuts from ?

Hi Dave,
Would have been better to start a new thread rather than tacking on to another one.
Anyway, have a look at the attached. It is one I modified from a Grant Tiller https://granttiller.com/
Is for a Navi but the same setup. Ignore the indicator bits.
Regards
Tony

Suggestion.
As soon as you go electronic ignition (and 12V) on the lightweights you need 2X6V coils. The bike comes with these if you had the original 6V coils. The WIPAC coils have a 90deg HT outlet for under the tank, works wonderfully. (Lucas coils have a straight outlet-awkward) The Wipac coils last forever. Details of this are on A O Services.co.uk.

Hi,
The circuit diagram has an error, also it can be simplified. Will update later.

If you already have the Boyer, then use that. Either will work.
