Hello Fellow Kawi trackers!
I have had an 81 Drifter 340 for several years now, my first sled.
Im pretty comfy with engine teardowns and reparis etc.
I put the drifter away in the spring with spark, pulled it out this fall with no spark.
I suspect the coil, but I cant find one anywhere online!
its a coil with a CDI built in.
there was a spare in the parts box that came with the sled but it doesnt seem to fire either.
I saw on this site someone has put a parts list of all the coils avail but none to be had. 21110-3006 (3005/3012/3024) and even a John deere # from a spitfire 340 but theres nothing on ebay or parts stores.
Does anyone know if I can make a modern coil / cdi work?
or any ideas on how to fix it?
the other issue I have is not able to find any specs/proceedure to specifically test my stator.
I get 16.5 ohms between the exciter(red) and Trigger(white) wires coming from the stator.
I belive the two yellow wires are for lighting and the brown is for ground,
can anyone confirm this is correct?
thanks so much in advance and I hope this finds you and your friends and family well.
cheers

Welcome to the site!! Someone here will have the answer but currently I am not the one.

Thanks for sayin Hello!
I was able to test the stator,
all is good in there,
I had 148 ohms between exciter(red) and ground meaning exciter is good and 38v ac on that circuit when cranking
I had 15.5 ohms between exciter and pulser meaning pulser is good and 3.5 v ac on that circuit when cranking.
so now I just need to find a good coil/cdi. not looking too good tho. hoping I can find the timing of the cdi, and use another model where maybe i use 2 single cdi coils or something?? I havent been able to find any info supporting that tho. and only dead ends when it comes to a used one.
cheers
