i have just disconected the wire from the brake to the coil does this make a difference

wayne, March 2009

yes mate i have done the wiring too thanks

Simply removing the brake will break the ignition circuit- I take it you have ensured the wiring is modified as well?

i have took the brake off will that make a difference thanks

does the engine have an engine brake fitted. If it's come off a mower than it will have- you will need to overide this when you fit it to a cultivator application.
