When I told my dad that I might need a new source coil he asked me if there was a test to verify if it is in fact the source coil that is bad. Long story short, is there a test that will confirm that the source coil is bad? Or is it just the low voltage? Thanks again

Thanks for the replies, And yes that was checked in ac volts from the source coil

hello all, i am having trouble getting spark from my 1979 dt125f and after checking the all the wiring (including the coil, the rectifier, the ignition/kill switch, the ground, cleaning the condenser/points aswell as the coils) and when we checked the voltage coming out of the magneto, it only topped out at about 4-6v. and when searching around we found that it is way too low, so we checked the wiring inside the magneto and it all seems good (in terms of resistance and continuity) between the four contact points and the ground. Are we missing anything? Any help will be greatly appretiated Thanks in advance

Good day, I am the proud owner of a 1979 dt125 that i picked up last year for that was seized really badly (it was clear that it was sitting outside for a number of years before my dad stumbled upon it) where the outside (plastics and whatnot) looked to be in pretty good condition considering the age, the inside of the engine (that hadn't spent its life bathed in transmission oil) was covered in rust. now that it is pretty well cleaned up I am hoping to get it running before this summer is over. I look forward to learning new things getting this going Thanks
