2 shops! wow i would make that first guy put on my old CDi and find the problem. you know i had this problem 3 years ago with my wifes warrior several times. i finally figured it was somthing silly. it was the wire connection in the spark plug boot was making a bad connection. i normally start where the problem and start going backwards. so i would start at the plug and go back. you can find manuals on line with electrical plans to look at. one thing for sure, i would never go back to those shops.

yeah your right,unfortunatly the problem started when some kids tried to steel it they cut the main harness right behind the headlight,the guy i bought it off of spliced them back and ever since theres been no fire,and where he had to splice them is in a really bad spot to get to.but i guess when i get it home im gonna have to remove them and redo it so i know for sure there good connections.
thanks
