I have a customer bike that is really stumping me.Want to share the issues to see if anyone else is having the same.
I am on my 3rd CDI unit with a customer bike. Twice it have checked for spark and it has been good. However it would not start until I changed the cdi unit.
The last episode started like this. I checked the coil with the ohm meter . It was open. No spark. So I Replaced coil and tried to start motor. GREAT SPARK!
Howerver the motor will not state. Messed with the carb......no issues ......No start either. Checked for good compression. All good. Changed the CDI. Bam.....motor running fine.
Why did I have to change the CDI unit when I had good spark at the plug already without changing the cdi?
