4 Attachment(s)
Hi all, just picked a new bike for the kids. I got it for $100, it cranks but no spark. I've checked the cdi and it's a DC unit not AC, I've checked the trigger wire and I'm getting vAC but my coil wire out of the cdi is only like .456 volts AC.. so I ordered 2 new DC cdi and a coil.. anyway here it is

Nice $100 score! Get a new spark plug too. Sometimes the plug wire and cap go bad if your new CDI's don't work.

Thanks, haven't pulled the plug yet. Are you guys using an ngk?

Fixed! I have spark. The bike runs, I have to use starting fluid because the PO took the carb a part because of the no start and must have put the slide in backwards because it doesn't move at all.. anyway I'll post up after that's squared away, other than that I'm actually surprised it started and ran decently

I'd bet the slide is in correct. If the slide was in backwards, it'd be revving very high and you would shut it off immediatly. |

I read nothing about cleaning the carb. Your jets are prolly plugged and the choke circiut needing cleaned out.
