RACxEMxWILLIE Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Ok guys, here is what Ive done so far: Resistance from stator to CDI: 18.1 ohms. Not sure if this is correct: .5 Ohms to Coil? (How do you check the coil?) I checked my tether switch, kill switch, the ground by the coil, and the ground at the voltage regulator. Coil itself is grounded to bare metal on the frame and so is the CDI. AM I missing a ground somewhere else? I put a new timing plate on it and put the stator on exactly as it came off the stock one. I did find that the rubber around the orange wire from the CDI to the Coil has rubbed off (little spot). Could that be the problem. I am a complete retard when it comes to electrical stuff. Oh yeah, and ive quadruple checked the grounds that I know of. If Im missing one, fill me in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I did find that the rubber around the orange wire from the CDI to the Coil has rubbed off (little spot). If that's grounded then yeah that'll kill the spark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Are you getting power to coil? Try running a ground wire from coil back to engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeCanBanshee Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Coil test is primary side(black wire terminal to orange wire terminal) is supposed to be like 0.28-0.38 ohms I believe and secondary side(plug wire side) one lead on plug wire side and one lead on corresponding primary side and should get 47k ohms or higher I can remember what the high side limit is. Also check your plug.wires and boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeCanBanshee Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 If you did it correctly then the .5 you got is to high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeCanBanshee Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Did you set the pick-up coil when you put the new timing plate on? Should be like a creditcard thickness away from the nubs on the flywheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RACxEMxWILLIE Posted April 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 yeah i used a business card to set the gap. im actually about to hotwire the orange straight to the coil and splice the black to the coil and to the frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas h. Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Also check spark plug caps. Look for ngk rubber boots and non resistor plugs. Tors unplugged? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulvafan537240 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Unplug the cdi. Test at the cdi connection so you test all the wiring between the cdi and the components. Red to green: 13.5-20.5 White/green to white/red: 95-140 black to orange: 0.28-0.38 spark plug boot to spark plug boot: 5700-8100 (4700-7100 + 2 5k plug caps) Red/black to black: short (with key switch turned on) Black/white to black: open (with kill switch turned on) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
