the coil-magneto-stator thingey?  the coil pack?
make sure power is getting to the cdi box or the coil pack
perhaps someone knows more

if you do need a cdi box,  i got one off an invader engine i am parting
neighborhood of $15 shipped

i hope is is an easy fix for you

Wiring, Ignition coils or maybe a bad stator assembly

You can test the exciter and pulser coils on the stator assembly for resistance

Exciter should be 129 ohms +/- 20%
Pulser should be 23 ohms +/- 20%

You can also test the Ignition coils

Primary winding (should be blue and brown wires) 0.37 ohms +/- 20%
Secondary winding (Spark plug wires) 10.2K ohms +/- 20%

For a small fee you can support the site and get access to an awesome amount of information via manuals, diagrams, tips and tricks in the members area! It can be very helpful!

Good luck man and let us know what you find!
