engine starts when cold but- cut it off and try to start it back and guess what , no spark, i have a service manual and have replaced the stator ,pulse genator and the icm and the switch is good there is current going to the icm from the switch i also by passed the kill switch no voltage from wires going to coil. also blue-yellow wire from pluse genator to icm has continuity.i don't have a peak voltage tester but a regular meter showes no voltage at all from pluse generator when engine is turning over. could the pulse generator be bad ? or am i just going crazy please help anyone thanks, c.duncan

 

Sounds like reg/recfi is bad.. it is mounted on frame above right rear tire. real common for these do go bad.

 

i kind of thought about the reg ,but can the reg/recfi cause it not to fire after you let it run a few minutes? thanks a lot -any help very welcome

 

Yes it's heats up also... Just real common here at my town..
