Hello All , I´m getting p!$$ed !!!! I dont have any spark...I´ve replaced the CDI, still no spark , Now for the confounding part...while testing for shorts and what nots, I get no current flowing to the coil , but when I short the coil back towards the CDI I get enough spark to start the bike , and then I have enough to run for awhile, but then while it just sits it goes dead again. Any Help out there???? P.S. Where can I get a manual that shows CDI info ?? The two I have show no reference to CDI´s only points. THANKS, kranky
