foreman ignition problem
I have a 97 foreman with ignition problems. I have had the coil checked out ok. I was checking the spark tonight when I noticed that I only have spark the second I push the starter button and just as let go of the button. There is no spark the rest of the time that I hold the button. I do have a manual but did not read anything in there about this. Does anyone have any idea what it might be, before I trouble shoot everything? Thought I would try this since it is to cold to work in the garage tonight!

The voltage seems to be holding up good. It stays around 12 volts when cranking it over. I took the starter out cleaned it up and took readings of it and it checks out ok. I have even left the charger hooked up when I was turning it over and it didnt make any differance. Going to go thru the manual again to see if there is anything I missed.

I have a older model (88) I have a Honda repair manuel that say its a ,CDI, I don't know about the new ones but thats what they are calling it. If you have a friend that maybe has a Honda 4 Wheeler or a junked out one just try it before you go buy one and just see if thats your problem. Also this box that I'm talking about is about 1" thick and 2" wide by 3" long. Its got 2 plugens and, one has 2 wires, and one has 4 wires. I'm not sure sience yours is so much newer than mine but thats what the book calls it. ( CDI Pulse generator) Sorry couldn't help
