A while back I posted about a 250es with no spark, well my friend who owns this machine ordered a new CDI (think he paid like $8, i told him to get a nicer more expensive one that would be better made, here is what he ordered- https://www.ebay.com/itm/CDI-Box-For...EAAOSwk1haIFmX ) and it fired right up. We let it warm up for about 5 minutes and then decided to try and put it into gear. It stalled immediately, at first we thought maybe the clutches were bad but eventually found that when put into gear (even reverse) it loses spark. Maybe I was wrong in my first post about this trike when i said that the neutral safety is good. I assumed it was because the neutral light worked correctly. The electric starter does not work either, so that is what is leading me in the direction of a safety switch. One of my friends suggested the carb was gunked up, but it ran well and revved up responsively, but it is apart and soaking in my "special sauce" parts cleaner.
I have also been recently told that this 87 is a rare beast can somebody elaborate on that? My buddy might have some other rare ones at his farm, there is like 10 other 3 wheelers. ATC 70,90, 110, 125, 185,a few 200s (some big reds), and a really complete 86 big red. I'll have to post pictures and updates about these other when we get them running.
