Only one coil Posted by Ari [Email] (#2847) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Ari) on Mon, 8 Nov 2004 12:32:04 In Reply to: 900S No Start - weak spark ?, Rocket900S, Mon, 8 Nov 2004 07:59:28 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
If #3 is getting a good spark but #2 isn't, you can't blame the coil.
The fact that part of the rotor broke counts as a bad sign in my book. And whenever something doesn't work right after putting in new parts, my first suspect is the new parts. Just because it's new doesn't mean it's perfect - it's just not fully tested in my book.
It sounds like you may have the wrong cap and rotor. At a minimum, the wrong rotor for that cap. That would explain a lot of things. If part of that rotor broke off, it had to have broken off on something. My advise is to replace the cap and rotor, and go to a different shop this time. And bring the old cap and rotor (the ones that worked at one time) along for reference.
Before you start chasing coils and ignition amplifiers, stuff that worked before the 'repairs', go after the things that obviously don't fit together. Or lose bits inthe process.
