banshee got no spark all of a sudden

[broken banshee]

hi guys. im new here. i bought a banshee 1993 model last week in non running condition. so i took it home and checked for spark straight away. it had spark. i think it might not hae been putting out enough sparks as it should at first maybe but then when i kept trying it was sparking alot more. and it was strong spark. tested with my hand a few times.

 

so i ruled out spark as the non running problem and pulled off the carby and full cleaned it out. (single carb conversion).' then put it back on and it wouldnt go still. so checked for spark again and now its go no spark at all.

 

wondering whats going on. i first thought i had maybe bumped a wire but after reading the problems on here i dunno. i believe it has a rm stator stator, coil and 10 setting cdi. all rmstator.

 

i resistance tested the stator. the pickup coil part was within spec. the ignition coil bit was 11.3 ohms instead of the 13.7-20.5 ohms its ment to be within. but being a aftermarket one i dunno if 11.3 is acceptable?

 

the coil got tested at the shop on whatever machine they use and they said its not up to spec but they said it should still make a spark. but if it was on a running bike itd break down at high revs. but there testing it on another banshee tomorrow to rule it out totally.

 

so can i get some input on what might be going on please guys? would love to get the thing going. my first quad was a 200cc china 4 stroke one lol. now i have a proper one and cant wait for the fun.

go back to an oem yamaha ignition, coil, stator and cdi. all that aftermarket nonsense is the source of endless headaches.

yeah il get original stuff sometime. is anyone selling any oem parts that will send them to australia?

 

would my low resistance reading on the stator make it not work?

Good chance it could. You could clean all connections , make sure coil has bare clean metal for ground. Using a Banshee flywheel puller ONLY , remove flywheel and clean any rust off magnets and stator, clean 2 timing lugs on outside, set pick-up coil gap.

this statement is all you need to know..

any more input into weather the 11.6 ohms reading on the stator is too low for it to work? ment to be 13.5-20.5 or something.

 

would you expect it to work but just produce weaker spark maybe?
