jebb Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Just a few probs with my dt.Does anyone have any ideas why the bugger wont spark? I have assembled it from a few spare parts, however the cdi matches the loom and stator (6 wire). Am getting some form of life from the magneto and have a new plug and supressor. Help!.

jordanscycles Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 you might want to unplug any lights it has if youre running it without a battery, if its not that you got a bogus cdi/coil but id think it was the cdi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Jeb Hi Jeb Try unplugging the kill switch and the ignition key switch then check again. Try another plug, Check the resistance values of your magneto source coil = 420 ohms +- 10%............Brown to chassis Check the resistance of the magneto pulse coil = 12.4 ohms +- 10%...........White / Red to chassis Check the resistance values of the ignition coil, Primary = 1.0 ohm =- 15%, secondary = 5900 ohms +- 20% ...Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
