Spark Problem

[boydmd89]

I'm trying to get my 6 year old started on an older Yamaha moto 4 (1986) Unfortunately it only sparks on the initial conpression cycle and then not again until you release the starter button and repress. The coils are new (not the timing one though) Any help on how to get this "kids antique" firing would be appreciated! The ignition box is $130. new so I don't want to purchase unless positive that it is the problem!

Thanks...

Don't start replacing anything until you get a service manual. Try to stay away from Haynes manuals, as they're vague and full of wrong information. If that's all you can get, then get it, it's better than nothing at all. It will pay for itself! It will contain information on pinpoint tests on all the electrical components. This way you only end up replacing what is bad.....even though I think it's gonna cost you that $130...
