I have a 1982 185s.
It has no spark. I took a full working pulse generator/spark arrestor assembly off my perfectly running 200s. I saw spark, albeit weak, for every pull. Put it in the plug hole and it wouldn't start.
Now it has no spark at all. Tried different plugs as well.
Then I took a working coil and plug wire off my other bike, it didn't fix it. Then I took a working cdi/regulator? (black box) and that didn't fix it.
No wires are cut/pinched, and none look to have been re-soldered or anything of the sort. Green wire connecting to coil is cleaned, still no spark at all. I disconnected the killswitch wiring to be sure. Nothing.
This leads me to believe it's the stator. Could it be anything else? I also thought timing, but wouldn't that spark sometimes if it did when I first put on a pulsar assembly?
Thanks
