Title: videos of dyna III install?
Post by: yackee on June 22, 2016, 05:33:51 PM

Does anyone have a link to a video of a Guzzi Dyna III electronic ignition install? I have a Dyna III coming for my T-3, and I've read the installation instructions on-line several times, but I learn best by seeing things done first. Alternatively, any videos of a Guzzi with a distributor having ignition timing adjusted? The instructions in Haynes, etc. are fine as far as they go, but I would feel much  more comfortable watching it done first...

Youtube wasn't much help, though I did find a video, in French, with a thousand views, of a dude pressing the starter button on his dyne-equipped moto guzzi. It started right up. Illuminating!

I haven't seen a vid but there is pics of someone doing it. Have you searched on the other forums? Benders site?

A word of warning about coils on the Dyna. Use the black 5 ohm or if you already have 3 ohm then add 2 ohm condensers.

   " Friend of mine just went to the Parts Unlimited show in Wisconsin and talked to he Dyna rep. Out of his mouth: "the guzzi system has a problem overheating the 3ohm coils and need to run off of the 5 ohm coil" my dad has burnt up 2 of the 3 ohm coils and is now talking the advice of the Dyna rep and upgrading to the 5 ohm coils.
Bummer that he didn't ask if the "Guzzi System problem" has anything to do with 1 out of 3 Dyns (as polled here some years ago) installed (long term) in Guzzis suddely burning up the Black Box, Not the (either 3 or 5 Ohm) coils..."

I have burned through 2 or 3 coils and a black box on those 3 ohm coils. No more 3 ohm for me.

Are the original stock coils on the early tontis 3ohm?  Could explain my black box failure long ago....

3.35 ohms. I've had 15,000 miles of service from my Dyna + original coils.
