Hi , just a quick one. I have just done a malossi 166 on a new PX125E, and it says to leave the timing on standard degrees which is 16’ but in my haste I did not notice if the stater plate was on IT or A, before I took it a part. Many thanks Mark

All 125's and 150's use the IT mark for ignition timing. The "A" is for the 200's.

Thanks folks, I normaly put on a small chisel mark on of my own but forgot this time. Thanks again for the help. Mark

Due to the manufacturing operation of the vespa’s they create both stators for PX125-150 and PX200 on the same line. ‚A‘ is 23 BTDC which is used on the PX200 (stock). ‚IT‘ is 18 BTDC used for 125-150s and also kitted 200s (i.e. Malossis’ etc).
