I am trying to troubleshoot a no spark condition on this engine. It has the solid state ignition module and common coil with wasted spark.
I tested the module by testing the negative lead referenced to ground and it switches that to ground just like it should so I believe the module is working just fine.
I tested the resistance on the coil pack and primary spec is 2.9-3.6ohms and I have 4.5ohms. Secondary is 14.5-19.8K and I have 42K.
Personally I usually see something open up in the winding to show it is bad but this system only has two components.
I am not sure what kind of voltage I really need at the coil but I think most will fire with reduced voltage, just a little less juice. During cranking I am seeing about 9V. I know there is some loss in wiring somewhere as just when things are on but not cranking I am seeing 12.1 at the bat and 11.1 at the coil.
The voltage is rash issue with me as I just realize some jacka** decided to remove the charging coil entirely! However, I know this engine ran this way before. Has not been started in a year and sort of uncommon to see a coil just "go bad" while sitting.
helpy help?
