No spark after top end rebuild


Recommended Posts

like the title says i have no spark after rebuild. the motor ran when i tore it down. i do still have the tors on it but have the brain box removed. ive done a search and cant really find an answer. im a mechanically inclined person but my weakness is electrical. ive swapped stators coil and cdi box off of another shee. still no spArk. the pickup gap is set at .018. i know its gotta be something simple. any ideas? thanks in advance for the help

I would suspect you still have the TORS system on the bike and messed wtih the throttle cable a bit when rebuilding.  If the electrical system senses that one of the carbs is open a bit but thumb throttle is closed, you will not have spark. 

 

Look inside the carb backs and see if a carb is hung up a bit.

the carbs are sync'd. i have a feeling its the tors. i have the little black box near the gas tank unplugged and removed. shouldnt that disable the tors.?

Yes, if the TORS module is unplugged, that should not be your issue.  Closely examine all the wiring and terminations (plugs).  It is possible that you disturbed one of them during the rebuild. 

 

The B/W wire is the ignition kill wire.  If it is taken to ground potential, there will be no fire.  I recommend testing from any source of B/W (TORS plug) to chassis ground.  If you have continuity, there is something grounded on the B/W.  Kill switch, key switch, TORS, or pinched wire. 

 

You would also test Any black wire to chassis ground to make sure there is continuity.
