Yes it has a Dyna, and come to find out the module did not go bad. It
was the fuel petcock gasket!!! I filed the points, hooked the dyna back
up and the thing ran like a champ, until I got it up to about 70 MPH. I
bypassed the dyna and tried again, but had the same problem. Opened both
fuel taps and the problem went away. Opened the petcocks and the rubber
of the gasket was all swollen and blocking the holes. Needless to say,
you should probably throw away the ones I gave you and save yourself
from the same fate. I am going to try them again in viton and see what
kind of luck I have.
