Default Re: older 96 rev limiter problems

Your engine is a Magneto or CDI ignition so it uses nothing to fire the coil but the flywheel.
The only thing hooked to it are things to stop fire by grounding it.
Before you buy anything disconnect everything from the coil and run it until warm. If it shuts down again then replace the coil, if it continues to run without shutting off then you have an intermittent ground in the kill circuit, maybe low oil circuit.
