Blue_Banshee13 Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) Hey everyone. Well i have got a problem with the shee, it keeps frying the ignition coils. it runs great but after about an hour of use the thing will just quit running, i let it cool for a little while and it starts back up but then after about a minute or so it quits again. We have a raptor so we switch the coils just to see if we can get a spark on the plug and we do so it cant be the wireing. My question is why would it eat coils like that? I have no speacial set-up on the wireing, i have a tether but thats not the problem. We took the volt meter to it and checked all the wires and they are fine. One question is though, sometimes coils like to shut down in excessive heat. I run the toomey T5's so maybe they could be too close to the coil, and it could be wrecking it? I need some ideas/solutions.. at 50$ a crack for an hour or so of fun isnt that cool, other than that when it runs it runs beautifull.

JKJK Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 I had a very similar problem.With the same exact symptoms you described. It turned out to be the cdi. Do you have a buddy with a shee,that you can swap cdi's with?For a test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Banshee13 Posted April 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 No i wish i did. A 300$ part that i might not need would suck but hey i guess its the price you pay. Thanks for the input though, more would be greatly appriciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Banshee13 Posted April 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 The machine is a 99. If i have to buy a part it would most likely be new but you never know, i suppose some more tests and help from you other guys will determine what ill have to do. Thanks guys.
