So I rebuilt the engine to replace leaking crankcase seals. I now have wonderful compression. I'm kind of excited about that other than the fact that its a little harder to turn over to test a spark.
I attached an automotive test light to the fins of the engine (and spark plug once to be sure) and jammed the sharp end into the end of the cdi wire. (no spark)
I then attached the test light from the blue wire out of the engine to the black wire out of the engine... no light
I measured the resistance between the blue and black wires. 351 ohms
Starting to figure out what this "air gap" is in another thread.
I hate dealing with Piston Bikes and I've spent a lot of money recently on this stuff. I'd really like to fix this problem instead of replacing things again if possible.
Thanks for all your help so far. This site is amazing.
