You have to find a manual and ohm out the wires the manual will prob tell you how to do it pretty easy.

To ohm out the wires you set the meter to the ohm setting. The ohm is the upside down horse shoe looking setting. Then just test all your components. You touch one end to one wire for both wires.


this should help a little.

have u tried taking the cdi cover off and cleaning the points inside i just sprayed it off w/ brake cleaner and touched em up w/ sandpaper
an emery board (old school finger nail file) works great too
