Just curious of those who have had your magneto fail due to rain or moisture. My ignition failed and after checking the CDI and magneto with a meter, I determined the magneto was bad. I have not replaced the mag as of yet (getting ready to purchase a new one), but noted that when this occurred it was a day or so after riding it in a heavy rain. I had not sealed the rubber grommet either so I am pretty sure that moisture was able to get in and do some sort of damage, but I didn't realize it would go out suddenly.
A day or two after the rain event, I began to ride it and got about a 1/4 mile then suddenly it just quit.
So only those with bad magnetos, post if you too had a problem with getting the mag wet and then having it fail miserably.
