Athmerbr Posted May 2, 2009 Author Report Posted May 2, 2009 One of the plug wires was bad, so i replaced coil. Now getting very intermittent spark. It fires a little bit on one side maybe every 5 kicks. I was thinking stator now... but all the resistances checked out. Could the stator still be bad? I am going to really look over the wiring. Also, for grounding I have heard of running a grounding strap. Should i do this, and if so, do i buy one from like an automotive store, or just use heavy wire? Quote
Athmerbr Posted May 2, 2009 Author Report Posted May 2, 2009 I live near Lapeer Michigan. Anyone on here live in Mid michigan and be willing to help me out by allowing me to try out thier stator? I think having someone look over everything would really help too. I purchased the bike with Tors already removed so some of the wiring seems a little strange to me. Quote
mark101180 Posted May 2, 2009 Report Posted May 2, 2009 i had a very similar problem it turned out to be the cdi. it had very intermitant spark so i rattled everything around and i smacked the cdi with my hand and it would start. im guessing there was a loose connection in the box. so i replaced the cdi and didnt have anymore problems. so try tapping on the cdi and see what happens you might have the same problem i did Quote
Athmerbr Posted May 2, 2009 Author Report Posted May 2, 2009 Victory! It was the damn wiring that was done to remove the Tors. Somehow, the jumper for the Red and Black wires was missing. Must have gotten removed during the tear down, or fell off, or something. Anyways, SHEE runs! Now i need an adjustable timing plate, anyone have any extras? Quote
