Bike engine help, can't get a spark

Recommended Posts

I know I have already posted in the tech section, but I need ideas.

Basicly everything on the car works but I ust don't get a spark to the plugs.

I have moved some bits but it was tested and run OK a few weeks ago.

I have 2 engines, so it must be something simple.

I have fuel going to the engine.

they turn over OK.

I only have untill Sunday to get this going, everything else on the car is done and ready to go.

I even have the number stickers on ready.

Assume there's power to the coil(s), I don't know if Kwaker's have 1 or 2.

If there is power to the coil(s) then my first point of call would be what Honda call the Ignition Pulse Generator on there bikes, basically it's a crank position sensor... but bike manufacturers seem to enjoy renaming everything!

Theres nothing wrong/broken with it - it's just crap advice from ZCars (as bl**** usual) - I've posted the solution as I recall it in the techy section..

Tim thanks very much for your help, I'm going up to the GF tonight so I'll give it a try.

I have been reading my Haynes book too so I can test some bits if it fails to start.

God I hope it does.......

(fingers crossed)

No problem - good luck. :)

This definitely worked in the past (and before I posted it on here it made quite a good anti-theft thing ;) ) - if it doesn't do the trick now it could be related to your immobiliser install?
