Default ignition spark sometimes

grandpa,

I amexperiencing the same problem with an atv I bought for my grandson. Starts up no problem runs for 2 3 mi9n. and stops cold. Haas to sit for awhile then starts up again no problem runs for 2 3 min stops again....acontinual problem. If I put a screwdriver into the spark plug wire when it is cool you get quite a jolt. When it stops there is no spark in the wire..reminds me of a coil.

Here is my dileema.

I bought it on line Seller assured me he was setting up a web site for parts ...checked the site under construction and then 2 months later site and seller gone. my problem. So parts are basically unavailable.. I am thinking I can order the part you purchased (name of parts sttore) and use it or modify it for my ATV . I have a 100cc 2 stroke MaxFine. A mech. that is helping me has indicated that some of these boxs have 6 wires some have 5...Will that be a problem?


Hope you can help if not anyone out there have a slution so we can modify this control box.

thanks,

curlplus

a grandpa trying to keep grandson happy
