1. Ducati Magnetos with ∅94 ID flywheel

Ducati magneto 31.17.30 for 1974-85 Tomos

Ducati Elettrotechnica Microfarad magnetos, 94mm id flywheel, were on 1974-1985 Tomos (early A3 engine), 1970’s Morini S5K2 (Marina Mobili part number 29-0026), and maybe others.

ZEM magneto 31.17.30 for 1983-1985 Tomos, is identical to Ducati

ZEM magnetos, identical to Ducati, 94mm id flywheel, were on 1983-85 Tomos (A3 engine). ZEM is a remake of DEM (Ducati Elettrotechnica Microfarad), because it is identical.

These magneto-generators are 3-wire external ignition ground type, like most Italian made US-model mopeds. Like many other US-model moped magnetos, the brake light is powered by the ignition source coil ground. This was to meet the US DOT requirement that the headlight not get dim when the brake light was on. So the two-coil generator has three outputs, the black ignition wire from the points to the spark coil, the blue ignition ground wire that is grounded through the brake light or brake light switches, and the yellow light wire the provides 6V AC about 25 watts for light and horn.

Early Tomos 1974 to 1985 had this type of magneto, with the brake light switches wired in series and normally closed when installed. If you removed the tail light and squeeze either brake, the engine would die. Starting in 1986 Tomos improved the electrical system with a solid-state-regulated single lighting yellow wire, a ignition black wire, and an internal ignition ground. So the engine never dies, on a 1986 and later Tomos with the 2-wire Iskra magneto, when the tail light wires are unplugged and the brake is applied. When the magneto type changed from 1985 to 86, the wiring also changed.

These Ducati and ZEM 94mm complete magnetos will interchange with 90mm Bosch complete magnetos and other Bosch compatibles like Iskra, except for the width and position of the key groove that determines the ignition timing. They are counterclockwise rotation. Points are CEV type “right hand” (the brown part looks like your right hand sideways with fingers bent). Condenser is CEV type.

Tomos mopeds have been equipped with many different magneto names and types.

2. Ducati Magnetos with ∅80 ID Flywheel 

Ducati  magnetos, 80mm id flywheel, were also on 70’s Minarelli manual-shift engines P6 and P6-70. Below is a magneto from a 1974 Indian ME76, Minarelli P6-70 engine, USA street model with a brake light. It has 3 output wires. Similar magnetos for off-road motorcycles or European mopeds without a brake light only have 2 wires. Red wire is ignition (points to spark coil). Black wire is power for lights. Purple wire is power for the brake light (or battery charging if there is a battery).

1. IDM

Left, IDM 6411 (Tomos 229.459) 90mm ID flywheel, CDI ignition
Right, IDM 6436 (Tomos 221.005) 80mm ID flywheel, points ignition

IDM magnetos, made in Italy, are on some early-to-mid-1990’s Tomos. They are CEV-compatible, and have the same appearance.

The IDM 6411 magneto has a reputation of being faulty. The CDI ignition looses spark. When that happens, both the CDI-coil unit and the magneto assembly must be replaced.

IDM 6411 (CDI) is on some 1993-95 Tomos models, especially 1993-94 Sprint. Three other magnetos were used during this period, IDM 6436 (points), Iskra 1217 (points), and AET 11.160.053 (CDI).

AET

Iskra

2. Iskra-AET

Iskra magnetos are made in Slovenia (which was part of Yugoslavia before 1991). They are original equipment on most Tomos mopeds from 1989 to 2007. After about 1993 Iskra magnetos were labeled AET. Iskra electric motors, AET electric equipment and Tomos mopeds were (or are) divisions of Hidria, a family of Slovenian manufacturing companies. Iskra-AET magnetos have the AET logo stamped on the flywheel, and the Iskra name cast into the back side of the stator base plate. So they can be called by either name.

Tomos mopeds, USA models, had many magnetos, but many were interchangeable. The magneto brands Ducati, ZEM, CEV, IDM, and Iskra-AET, each had different versions. They are all listed below, in order of VIN code and year range.

In 1998 the 230.327 magneto changed to a “4-star” or “plus sign” design. 3 of the 4 coils were for lighting, connected in series, and one coil was for ignition. So the output wires did not change. The base plate screws changed, from three 4 mm, to two 5 mm.
1974-1997 engine cases had only mounts for 3-M4-screw stator plates.
1998-later engine cases had mounts for both 2-M5 and 3-M4-screw base plates.

In 2003 the engine case, on all models, became electric-start-ready. The magneto did not change, but the magneto part number did because the rubber grommet for the wires changed.
The 232.976 is a 230.327 with a different grommet.

In 2001-02 the A35 Revival was the first Tomos with electric start. The 230.842 magneto was the same as a 230.327, except it had an extra wire for battery charging, and a large flat gear on top, for electric starting.

In 2004-05 the A55 engine came out. It was cleaner and more efficient, to meet new 2006 EPA pollution standards. The A55 had a different magneto with an external pulser, which added two more wires.

Engine cases: You don’t have to know the year or model to know what magneto(s) fit at particular Tomos. You only have to know what left-side engine case it has. The stator plate has to fit the engine case, and the flywheel has to fit the crank.

From 1974 to 1997 there were three M4-0.7 thread stator plate holes, for A3 and early A35. 3 total.

From 1998 to 2002 two M5-0.8 thread stator plate holes were added, for mid A35. 5 total, 3 unused.

From 2003 to 2006 the electric start affected the wires grommet, for late A35. 7 holes total, 5 unused

From 2003 to 2013 two M6-1.0 thread pulser coil holes were added, for A55. 7 holes total, 3 unused.

Flywheels: All the flywheels, both 80 and 90 mm ID, fit the same crank, but they can have different points cams or ignition triggers. Some flywheels do interchange, some might, and some don’t.

1. Zanetti Mopeds

Officine Meccaniche Zanetti in Bologna Italy made 50cc motorcycle engines and motorized bicycles from the early 1960’s to the late 70’s.

Bicizeta: In the 1960’s Zanetti produced the popular Italian motor bike Bicizeta (bee-see-zet-uh) with the Zanetti C50/2 front engine. It could be pedaled or motored, or both. It folded in half to fit easily into most car trunks. The gas tank is above the engine below the handlebar. The headlight is molded into the gas tank.

C50/2 front engine is a friction drive, pull start, 42 cc automatic.
It produced 0.7 hp at 3750 rpm, and went about 19 mph.
Bore 38, Stroke 37, Size 41.96 cc, Compression ratio 7.64:1

Pumita: From about 1963 to ’72 the Bicizeta was remade in Cordoba, Argentina by Lujan HNOS S.A.I.C. It was called Pumita (little puma). Some versions had less chrome. Some had different controls. 

’63-72? bicimoto Pumita (Argentina model)

First American Bicizeta: In 1964-65 First American Bicizeta, Inc began importing to the US the popular Italian motorized bicycle Bicizeta.

Euro and US versions: The Euro-model Bicizeta had an internal spark coil, no brake light and a small tail light. The US-model version sold in the late 60’s and early 70’s had an external spark coil, a brake light (powered by the ignition source coil ground), and a large tail light.

There are no photos or flyers available. So which Bicizeta version is unknown.

MBI: Some time in 1965-68 First American Bicizeta became Motor Bike Imports (MBI) 6005 S Route 130, Pennsauken NJ 08110. MBI created the Safari brand name. In the late 70’s Safari became a popular brand sold at eastern US moped shops, mostly New Jersey, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Florida. 

Safari Scat: In 1968-69 MBI contracted MZV of Bologna Italy to produce mini-bikes and mini-cycles using the Zanetti engines. They were given the brand name Safari Scat. Apparently the Safari Scat mini bike line of the early 1970’s included or became street legal full size mopeds with off road tires and fenders by around 1979. There are currently no pictures or details of those early Safari Scat mini bikes. There is only this 1979 Safari Super Scat, a top tank moped with Minarelli V1 engine.

Bicizeta: From about 1968 to 1974 MBI sold the Zanetti Bicizeta:

Tires: 20 x 1.75 (bicycle)

Cables: all 1-ended, throttle, decomp, front brake, rear brake

Hubs/Brakes: 70’s Grimeca 90 x 18 mm, Grimeca pinch bolts
axles M10?-1.0 threaded

Spokes: 36 front and 36 rear, both 3-cross 171 x 2.5 mm

Electrical: external ignition ground powers the brake light

the green engine wire must go to ground to have spark

Tail Light: CEV 9313 with 6V 3/15w or 6V 5/18w bulb

Head Light: CEV

Petcock: knob? type, horizontal, M12-1.0 thread

Safari Rovet: In the early 1970’s MBI went in partnership with an Italian engineer and started their own bicycle manufacturing company, named Rovet. In 1975 Rovet made the Safari Rovet, using the Zanetti front engine. Unlike the Bicizeta that was a folding step-thru frame, the Rovet was non-folding. It produced 1 hp, went about 19 mph, and was DOT approved for US streets.

Fuel pump: The Rovet gas tank was the main frame tube, with a petcock down near the pedals. The fuel tank is lower than the engine, and so a fuel pump is required to supply fuel to the carburetor. A supply hose from the petcock goes to the pump. A hose from the pump goes to the carburetor. The Dellorto SHA float type carburetor only lets fuel in when it is needed. The excess fuel supplied by the pump is returned back to the fuel tank. So a return hose goes from the carburetor to the top of the fuel tank.

1975 Safari Rovet, headlight removed

Safari Fox: Not long after the Rovet was introduced, it was improved and renamed Fox. A top cross bar was added that kept the frame from bending under heavy loads, like jumping curbs or hitting pot holes. That made it necessary to swing your leg over the back of the bike to mount and dismount it. It was no longer a step through design.

The ’77 BETA SL5 throttle is a early-70’s Domino wrap-around type with a slotted M6 adjuster.

This 2-ended cable is for a Dellorto 2h cable pipe (short 1 ¼”). The original cable pipe is longer. So the exposed length 3.7″ would be shorter.

Encarwi (made in Holland, now the Netherlands) was a division of Bing (Germany). On US models, Bing-Encarwi carburetors were used on mopeds by Batavus and Badger, with Laura (Holland) engines, Flandria (Belgium), and pre-1986 Tomos (Yugoslavia).

Batavus: Left, 1970’s Batavus VA had a Laura M48 engine with an Encarwi S-type carburetor. Right, 1980’s Batavus Regency had a Laura M56 engine with an Encarwi H-type carburetor.

Tomos: Before 1973, Tomos had Puch and Laura engines. The 1971 Tomos Automatic N had a Laura M48 engine with an Encarwi S-type carburetor. In 1973 Tomos came out with their own engines the Automatic 1 (one speed), and the Automatic 3 (two speed). The A3 had an Encarwi A-type carburetor. Tomos continued to use Encarwi on their A3 engine, until 1985. After that they used Dellorto.

Flandria: 1977 Flandria Bermuda (US model) had an Encarwi S33 or S33A S-type carb. 

A-type has an automatic choke controlled by the throttle cable. S-type has a separate choke controlled by a choke cable. 

Top, S-type on Batavus. Bottom, A-type on Tomos (no idle screw).

Encarwi “A” series carbs had an “automatic” choke, controlled by a special twist throttle with thumb button. The choke button lets the throttle twist opposite, below “zero”. This exposes a hole in the slide valve, in front of the fuel nozzle. After starting, twist throttle and choke clicks off automatically. All A-type have 3.5mm jet threads except for 88A85/103.

Top, Encarwi carburetors, engine view, with slides slightly open, showing the idle air channels or slots or holes. Bottom, the corresponding throttle slides, all 14mm diameter, bottom view. The pair of large holes is for the cable.

Substitutions or conversions: Any S-type slide can be drilled and machined to be made for an A83 or H12 carb. The S-type slides (190, 405, 188, 167, 2) all interchange, but have different idle mixture idling behaviors. The Tomos A3 slide 426 fits a Trac M56 with H12 carb, with only minor widening (drilling) of the sprayer hole.

The amazing Encarwi 426 auto-choke throttle
slide (Tomos A3) is explained in four steps:
1. Full power   – throttle cable is pulled all the way.
The slide does not have to be there. Main jet controls the mixture.
2. Partial power -throttle cable is pulled part way.
The slide limits the amount of air. The main jet controls the mixture.
3. No power (idle) -throttle cable is pulled slightly.
The slide blocks most of the air. Idle slot size controls the mixture.
4. Cold start  – throttle cable is not pulled at all.
The choke jet hole and choke air hole in slide 426 control the mixture.

Substitutions or conversions: The S25 and A83 Ø12 carbs are the same, except for the throttle slide and idle screw.
The Ø14 throttle slides 167 and 426 are nearly the same, except the Auto type 426 has extra choke holes and cut outs.

History

Carwi Carburator, from the 1950’s

Encarwi Carburator, from 1960’s or 70’s

Left, Encarwi A30 carburetor. Right, A30 carb on 60’s Flandria

You can see that these early Encarwi carbs have many things in common with the later ones. The most obvious thing is the angle of the throttle slide with the venturi. Most carburetors have the slide valve 90 degrees to the air flow, but Encarwi carbs are more like 60 degrees. The other thing unique to Encarwi is the “automatic” choke, indicated by the absence of an idle speed adjustment screw, the choke holes and cut-away in the slide, and an extra thumb button on the throttle control that lets the throttle cable go completely slack, below normal idle or “zero”.
