I've been getting a very weak spark or no spark at all since I first ran my bike last week. The first time I tried starting it, it ran great for half a mile, and then started to lose power and sputtered out and wouldn't start again. I tested the wires with a meter and I thought the CDI might be the problem, so I ordered a new one, and it started right up and ran great for half a mile before the same thing happened again.
So I ordered a new magneto and NGK spark plug, and it ran great for a few minutes, and the same thing happened again. I thought that maybe the CNS carb wasn't giving the engine enough fuel, so I raised the float level and tried starting it some more. I pulled the spark plug out and it was drenched in fuel. Turning the bike over and holding the plug to the engine head doesn't get any spark. The only thing I haven't replaced is the magnet, but it seems okay.
Any ideas?
