ok heres the deal, just finished rebuilding the motor on my 2000 banshee, got the motor all together and mounted in the bike, try to start and got no spark, spent 3 days troubleshootin this, but i finaly figured it out, i got 2 banshees so i got a multimeter and tested the volts comin outa the runnning one and got over a 1000, then i checked on mine and get about 400. so i checked the input to the coil, got the same on both, first thought was it was the coil, so i swapped coils, and still the same, i am clueless to whats wrong,

heres whats not on my bike, maybe it has something to do with it but not sure,

pipes not installed
no radiater fluid
no filters


somone have any clue of why i get no spark please help im getting really frustrated,

 

dont the pipes created back pressure to the cylinders and dont u need a certian amount of back pressur ein order for a motor to run meaning you owuld need you pipes to be installed?

 

well its a problem getting spark, i cant even get spark, so the backpressure deal is farther down the running line

 

first off... you did stupid move #1.. this is y u need to know engines.. more air = more power... which means you need to get a slipon to keep a steady air flow.. but when you don't have backpressure than there is't enough.. well see bakc pressure is resistance.. to little and your engine will run like crap and may blow... to MUCH and your engine may run worst and with less power

 

well if u guys would read, im not even getting any spark, im not trying to get the motor to start yet, im trying to get spark, i have half the volts coming out of the coil wire then on my other bike. so stop getting on me about back pressure, the bike wont even start due to no spark

 

check all your wires and fuses...

 

well i get the same voltage to the coil as my other one, its the problem of getting the power outa the coil, all wires are good, didnt know there was any fuses, and i havent seen and so i dont think there is

 

my guess would be, put some fluid into it, my friend tried startin his shee right after rebuildin it w/o radiator fluid and it wouldnt spark either, i think there is a sensor in it to keep you from blowin the motor from over heating.

 

well i looked for any and all sensors and found none on the radiater, but i may be mistaken. but i guess ill try that tommarow thanks, anyone else have anything more to add anything and everything will help

 

ok i looked online and on the bike, theres no sensor for the radiator so i dont see this a problem. theres no sensors on the bike and no fuses, any help would be much appreciated
