No Spark with 73 Harley Davidson golf cart
We just got a 72 Harley Davidson golf cart and replaced the points and condenser along with a few other things. We have a small spark or no spark with it now. Any ideas what's wrong and what we could do ?

Re: No Spark with 73 Harley Davidson golf cart
I second what these other guys are saying. That it is getting spark at says that your ignition circuit is correct and functioning. Clean your grounding strap connections. Also, the points ground though the engine so you may want to put some dielectric on it to make sure that those are grounding good.

Re: No Spark with 73 Harley Davidson golf cart
Do you have a internal ballast coil or a external ballast resistor?

Re: No Spark with 73 Harley Davidson golf cart
Sometimes with new points the point cover contacts the points housing and results in "no spark".
Try it without the point cover installed. Search "Point cover" intros forum and maybe there are old posts about it. Good luck. |
