89 club cart help

[lockman1]

I think someone's getting the late 80's KF82's and the 92+ FE290's confused...

I don't know KF82 flathead's very well, just from what I've read in Springbok's posts,
I "think"... (don't quote me) that the early 80's had a separate ignitor, and the 89 to 91's had an exciting coil, (ignitor/coil combined)
That would be one of the first things I would check for a "no spark" condition.

Would that ignitor be on the coil going down in the engine ?

I did a load of research and it kept pointing back to the rev limiter and how I found this forum!

Your 1989 cart should not have that separate rev limiter. From what I've seen, the stand-alone rev limiter was only used on late 1990 and 1991 carts.

The picture you put up is not the "black box of death", which I assume you mean to be the rev limiter. Pictured is just part of black cover plate that bolts to the motor.

The wire that goes down behind the flywheel here goes to the exciting coil.

This is what it looks like:

[Springbok]

Possibly. You're not in or near Stark County, Ohio are you?
