No spark

[Dahl87banshee]

Once and a while it will spark but not very often. I have checked the pick up gap and wiring connections. I am thinking its the coil but I have been wrong before. Any help would be appreciated. Also looking for a coil and possibly a stator, but I'll make a wanted add for that.

My key switch when bad.

Have you considered stripping down the harness to the minimum?

Clean your ground too.

Use a ohm meter and search for the specs on the stator and test it too.

[Dahl87banshee]

Yeah it's already trimmed down to nothing. No extra wires hanging and lights go on when it starts. I think I'm going to make a new wiring harness off this diagram (already did last year but I'll make another one and try it)

Hopefully it works.

The stator has a separate coil for lights which is not a test indicator for good stator.

 

 

Bypass the kill switch maybe it is interminably contacting

You check to make sure your flywheel is stil on? A sheered key can cause the flywheel to come off the tapered end and then not be press fit to spin when the motor cranks over...

[Dahl87banshee]

Yeah checked the flywheel key too, that was my first guess. And I don't have the kill switch, just a tether. Already tried bypassing it. It's kinda weird I get a little spark with the tether taken out but none with it in.

Got it going. Put a new end on the orange wire for the coil and grounded a wire that had been ripped off and shee fired right up
