I hate to bring this to the top, but I really need some help.

have you checked the cam timing and valve adjustment ? looked the wiring over for damaged spots?

[dwh91102]

Yeah the timing and valves are fine, its for sure an electrical problem. I've checked every connection, and wire everything looks great. I've pretty much narrowed it down to the stator or the cdi. I've read a lot of posts on the net with people having similar problems with the stator, starts losing power on top end, then usally quits working completely. I'm just looking for someone who has had this problem, if it was anything similar. I don't have the book to check the stator, plus I've read that the test can be somewhat iffy anyway. The link in the above post is the exact problem im having.

The manual I think says you can check that CDI with a ohm meter right?

Ok thanks for all the help fellas, also the guys post I posted above emailed me, and said that his was a loose jet. I did put a inline filter in, so i'll take that out, and i'm also ordering a carb rebuild kit, and the left gasket tomorrow. I pray that takes care of the problem, I don't want to miss out on the first good snow riddin. I keep you guys updated.
