Re: Two wheels good.
Are these prone to top coil failure? Maybe an earth fault or a kill switch connected wrong from when you had the clocks/ headlight apart? Does it spark with the run/stop in the wrong position (if it has one?)

Re: Two wheels good.
It still may be the cut out switch. Some disable spark and not the starter. My last scooter was like that.Hooli wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 7:22 pm Spins over but won't spark. So it's not those cut out switches, good call though. I've gone as far as I can with testing, power arrives at the right places and crank sensor is giving the right resistance. Plugs get wet so it's fueling.
I've called it a bastard and left it for now.

Doesn't matter now anyway, as somehow spending days fixing her bike, showing her what I was doing & teaching her mechanical stuff translates to being a sexist, racist chauvinistic wanker she never wants to speak to again..
I guess she can fix her own bikes now.

Re: Two wheels good.
In that case I'd change the header on my posts if I was you so he doesn't get the wrong(?) idea.
