SO I went to autozone and got a replacement. unscrewed he old cable, cut the new one, hooked it all together, it sparked for a few feet, then nothing
I opened up the cable, and I see there is no metal in it>? It was just insulation
So I grabbed the old cable, changed out the boot, hooked it all up, still nothing.
Put everything back the way it was, still nothing.
Did i fould a spark plug?
Is it the wire?
Did using an insulated wire fry my cdi?
What I have done: I took the leads coming from the magneto in my hand, and at speed it is shocking me.
Tried to put my finger on the screw on the cdi, i get no shock.
Do i need to be grounded? Is there another way to test without a mulimeter? so far its either cdi-spark plug cable- spark plug that are the issue. I need this running by monday, so i may have to make a new cdi.
Ideas? Any way to test the components that i have narrowed it to?
I tried two different spark plugs with no success...
