Hot ignition transformer

[Saroch]

Hello,
I used ACD engine and faced problem on ignition transformer. It hot when long running engine..... Do you know the problem on this case? I used brand Peru that made in Germany...
The engine run around 1-2 hours and then shut down... I worry that there are some wiring wrong or computer box error or something else... What do you think? I would like to find out somethings to make the transformer hot and make engine shut down.. . What is your suggestion?
Regards,
Saroch C

It is normal that the transformer becomes hot. But a system shut down should not happen, that would mean a defect. The ignition controller of the transformer has a safety system. On overload or to hot it will shut down.

Is it real stock ACD engine and a clean motor compartment? All seals intact? No additional spoilers on the rear lid? It may become too hot in general, getting hot air from the exhaust or not enough air for cooling.

Have you checked the spark plug and wires? And the 12V generator... 13,4V when running?
