No spark

Recommended Posts

Funny, after rallying behind my Kohler motor in another post, I now get no spark while cranking. Take plug out and crank - no spark. Turn key from run to off - I get a spark. Tells me the coil & condensor are fine. I'm going to tinker around, probably a bad onnection somewhere. Can anyone shed some light on this problem?

Five minutes of troubleshooting revealed some moisture on the points. Makes sense based on the symptoms. Beware of the power washer....

Make sure the ignition is connected to the ignition terminal and not the accessory terminal. The ignition terminal stays on in start position. Accessory terminal is cut off in start position, but is energized in the on position.
