    Friggin elec .problem

    Now I'm confused. Not to highjack his thread, but did he get it going? I interpreted "Not even a sputter now" as a bad thing. Also, I get what you are saying about the coil taking the stator charge and kicking it up to 40K plus, but when I ran the test I disconnected the orange wire from the...

    Friggin elec .problem

    I've been reading/following this thread (I'm the one the great guys on this site helped isolate my problem to a bad/mismatched flywheel) and by no means do I have the experience of most of these guys. I just tried to replicate what you are seeing on your tester and my AC meter shows the orange...

    Spark Problems

    I tested two coils (one brand new) with a high quality tester and both showed .5 ohms which is well below what the manual shows as within tolerance. However, both coils worked perfect. I tested every single electrical component on the blaster and finally and with some luck pinpointed the...

    Odd that the flywheel was whacked. Could it be a bad match between the flywheel and the stator? I'm going to start re-building the 2nd motor for what was the parts bike so I will be kicking around on this site for awhile. Thanks again to everyone who weighed in on my problems- couldn't have...

    Hooray!!!! Blaster running like it should, finally! Has anyone ever come across a mismatched/bad flywheel? After doing and re-doing every test/swap procedure in this entire thread, I had nothing left to swap and/or test so I decided to swap flywheels for the hell of it. And wouldn't you know it...

    Swapped cdi's, same problem. Swapped coils, same. Swapped harnesses, same. 2 stroke oil is Yamaha, bought from the dealer a few days ago. I measured the ratio using a kitchen ml measuring glass. Perfectly accurate? Probably not but unless someone tells me the blaster is unique and has to have...

    I have 3 brand new plugs and tried them all. I completely agree with you on the coil coincidence readings, not likely both are bad and read the same exact resistance number. And for s&g's last night, I tested the coils after warming them up inside with the same result. I've run every test...

    Post-rebuild engine problems, be my hero!

    OK gents, hopefully made some progress drilling down on my bogging blaster dilemma. Tested all the electrical components again and everything, minus one exception is in spec (although the clymer manual states that the pulser coil should read 72-108 ohms which is a far cry from the 12-26 ohms the...

    Roger that on the e-brake, none on this one. Nothing I do to the carb changes the idle or fixes the bog (i.e. choke in/out, air screw, idle mixture, smaller jets). None of it has any effect at all. I'm more convinced than ever it's electrical-related. I traced and checked the entire harness...

    Post-rebuild engine problems, be my hero!

    Parts bike is a 1991 and I'm using all of the electrical components from that bike- coil, cdi, stators, harness, etc. as most of it was nearly brand new. Just for kicks, today I tried plugging in the TORS module while the blaster was idling and it immediately killed the engine. What is weird is...

    Post-rebuild engine problems, be my hero!

    I have not messed with an e-brake. I'm not sure it even has one. This morning I'm going to go back over the wiring, front to back. Just to confirm, aside from disconnecting all of the TORS-related components/wiring, am I supposed to connect and/or ground any of those wires? I thought I recalled...

    Post-rebuild engine problems, be my hero!

    Maybe. My "fun winter project" is turning into a beyotch of a pain in the ass. Should not be this difficult as I am baffled at this point. I will go over the wiring, again. But the spark looks very strong at the plug. Any other ideas? As careful as I was to ensure the piston was oriented the...

    OK guys, changed jets to a 40 pilot, 140 main. Ensured the needle was middle clip. Same problem. Starts on the 2nd kick, idles fine, bogs as soon as I touch the gas. Pulled plug, nasty oily. Put a new plug in. Also, dumped the gas and mixed a fresh gallon, 32:1. Same result: bogging POS...

    No airbox lid. Clamp on K&N filter. I'm trying to track down jets for this carb now but so far no one up here (Green Bay, WI area) carries them in stock. Might be a day or 2 before I can get them and see what it does. Beyond frustrating at this point but if new smaller jets solve the problem...

    OK, I will give the new pilot jet(s) a try and learn how the hell to adjust the needle clip setting. And then report back as instructed my blaster master.
