I managed to get a spark at the plug again by adjusting the coils as they had been knocked out of alignment i think the timings out though as it will hardly run.

My flywheel came loose!
After the breakdown on the tomos i was surprised to find out that the clutches were still intact. It turns out that the flywheel had come loose and caused havoc with the crank shaft and stator.

Tomos break down!
So i thought id get out this evening and test out the Tomos' new tyre and lighter clutch spring. Rode for about eight miles. The second gear shifted better that before although not perfect. New rear tyre seemed ok too.
I did a big loop and at about 3 miles from home started to have problems with second gear. Bike would only run in first gear once it shifted up it died. I suspected the spring had gone. First gear seemed ok though so used that for another mile until something else went and it died. So i've just arrived home after pushing the moped 2 miles home in the dark. Heres a shot of the bike on the walk back in the moonlight.
