Help Identifying Components

I need some help identifying a few components.
The Circuit is a CDI Unit out of an old Yamaha motorcycle & is obviously dead at the moment, the large capacitor has been removed from the circuit & not shown.

Four pictures attached in the Zip File, No1 shows a metal can component with no markings at all.
Pictures 2 & 3 show a green component again with no markings?
Next to the green component in pictures 2 & 3 is something that has a braided cloth around the outside, I need to identify this as well.

Picture 4 shows shows 4 blue & white components with blue dots on them, Transorbs?

Any help Identifying these components & maybe some specs would be very helpful or replacemant values!


Thanks

Pict 2 & 3 the green object is an SCR & this will almost certainly be the faulty component. Most CDIs ive repaired the SCR is what fails. A replacement BT151 SCR.

Another option is this kit KC5466 from Jaycar Electronics for around $20. Ive built them & used them on small engines that the CDI unit has failed. Oops wrong picture.

Thanks debe,

I'll test the SCR & see how I go, I'm just drawing the circuit at the moment to try to work out how it all works, makes it hard when there are mystery components in the circuit.

I have made a simillar circuit to the jaycar one shown a while back for a small stationary motor but at this stage I am not sure how to connect something like that to this motorcycle.

I'll check a few things out & get back to you.
Thanks for the reply.
