1982 G1 quit
Right in the middle of #9 fairway. Running super until then. Was running along then it just died and stopped. Still turned over but would not start and go. Any direction would help? Thanks- Mike

Re: 1982 G1 quit
pull the plug check the color
if wet or dry check if spark or compression report back results btw with a 2 stroke anything ALWAYS CARRY A SPARE PLUG AND TOOL |

Re: 1982 G1 quit
OK. I drove back up to the course and tried again to start it. No go. I pulled the plug and it was clean but wet with gas indicating it wasn't getting fire. I could hear both the solenoids clicking in forward and reverse but the engine wouldn't catch and start running. I again pulled the plug, connected it up to the wire and grounded the plug but didn't see any sparking going on so I am guessing I have no fire to the plug. There seemed to be compression as it was blowing gangbusters out the hole where I took the plug out. What next? There is a little cylindrical black thing the plug wire comes out of before runs to the plug attachment. I am guessing it is something like a coil? Could that be my problem? All electrical connections appeared to be solid and I checked the fuse in the black connector on the solenoid side and it appeared to be good. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks - Mike

Re: 1982 G1 quit
sounds like you have a lose of spark
the coil that the plug wire is connected to should get a current from the CDI [black box] and the CDI box should get a current from the inside the flywheel if the wires all check good with a continuity tester remember a G-1 is an older cart now and wires can break inside but look ok outside see what voltage you get out of the flywheel wires to the CDI and the volts out of the CDI to the coil the first thing I would do is try a new spark plug they are cheap and do sometimes go bad inside and it is a good idea to have a spare plug next check wires and connectors and switches and things like the gas petal off switch by unplugging it if there is a voltage out of the flywheel wire but not past the CDI to coil see the china CDI replacement thread a stickie at the top of this yamaha gas board but make sure the problem is not a wire or connector or switch before starting to spending on replacing the CDI or coil btw stock yamaha parts are good but very over priced at 200 vs 20 or less for the china CDI |

Re: 1982 G1 quit
a common cause is the gas petal switch
there are two one engages the starter when the gas is depressed and one that stops the spark/motor when you let off the gas petal all the way |

Re: 1982 G1 quit
My starter engages & turns over the motor but doesn't catch and start. There is gas to the chamber. Where is the switch that stops the spark/motor when you let off the gas petal all the way? I am still assuming it is the igniter that is bad but will check the switch you mentioned before purchasing an igniter.
