G16 No Spark when hot
I have a G16 gas. It runs fine most of the time but may be getting worse. When the air temp and engine heat up the cart will stop. I was able to check it when hot and there was one little spark and then nothing. No spark. I verified the pliug and gap. I checked the cap and cut 1/4" off the plug wire. Since the problem is when it's hot I m think something other than the coil. Any ideas?
Thanks |

Re: G16 No Spark when hot
I would say it is the coil. I have had several that have had the same symptons.

Re: G16 No Spark when hot
I agree with TN. I have found that when G16's and up loose spark when hot,, the "TCI Coil" is the problem. In the hundreds/thousands of carts like this out there,,I can only remember 4 or 5, but your diagnosis leads me to beleive.."TCI". later dave

Re: G16 No Spark when hot
Thanks I'll replace the coil and let you know if it works. Don't hold your breath as it will be 4 or 5 weeks till I get out to it
