sorry got the price wrong,, they're 14.00 delivered.  it doesn't need a jet kit and makes yer fazz much more lively and makes them start better too.  yamaha set them up retarded for crappy petrol quality in some countries, our fuel is consistently good so they run and start better as a result.

Off the back of this thread I ordered an advancer. arrived today and fitted.
Instantly starting was much better using no choke at all, idle sounds a little less lumpy. Pick-up from the bottom also noticeably better (less fluffy).
Not noticed any great benefit in better pull at low revs, but then I only took a quick blast to the petrol station and back.  :lol
Engine does feel a little less peaky and more smooth up the rev range.

One main thing I did notice was less popping from the exhaust on downshift!? Maybe in my head, time will tell.

my only complaint was the machining of that one from ebay was rather tight. I tried to get it on but the locating lug just would not go. I had to get a small file out and take off the edge where there was a small lip. Once lip removed was a very snug fit. torqued up to 60NM and so far so good.

Will update after a longer ride.

thanks, Fuzz

Lord,
Grant me the WD-40 to move those things that are stuck, the Duck tape to fasten those things that are loose, And the wisdom to know the difference.
Amen
