Ok. My scooter won't start so I started checking things out. Starter is working, battery is strong, fuse is good. I smell gasoline getting to the engine. I pulled the plug and it was damp with gas. I grounded the plug (wire attached) to check for spark. When I hit the starter button, the starter wurred but I saw no spark. Which component has most likely failed?

Ignition Coil or CDI. Both $10 items and easy to replace.

Items that effect a no spark are, Kill switch(on,bad connection), Bad Coil, Bad CDI, Trigger Pickup, Stator.

Because they are cheap, I ordered a CDI and a coil (black  ). It's worth a shot to get this scooter going again. I've put just over 2,000 miles on this scooter. Once it's on the road again, I plan on selling it. It's time for something a little bigger. |
