dt502001 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Do youhave spark? check it by holding the plug to the hear while cranking the eng over. To disable the kill switch just follow the wires and un plug. no spark 1st try a new plug and cap 2nd buy a manual your going to need it to do the rest of the tests to determin why you have no spark. your going to be checking the ignition coil and pick up coil and you will need a multi meter to do these tests.

Sacha Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 thx for ur fin help, after spending over 100hrs in garage i managed to find out its valve, again thx and hopefully i ll never have to go on this freekin forum again cause its waste! Well that's not very nice. There are so many posts sometimes that it's hard to keep up... and sometimes threads get buried. If I could've helped I would have, but I am a beginner myself... haven't even started on my engine really. Hopefully you've at least learned more about your bike and its workings. ??

Sacha Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I know. This isn't some kind of magical place that has an on-call mechanic who can read minds and troubleshoot at great distances... just didn't want him too soured on the site. It's a fabulous place with a virtual cornucopia of information... I can get lost for hours looking through old posts and learning as I go. Maybe we should direct him to Dan's site to learn more? http://www.dansmc.com/mc_repaircourse.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted September 18, 2012 Moderator Share Posted September 18, 2012 It just isn't good enough. Obviously all the good people on here still do not have enough knowledge and time to answer all of the help posts. Because of this I think we all need to change.
