Shall we begin..
When cranking motor with DVA connected to either cylinder, I only see voltage when I let go of key switch... stop cranking.
I disconnect stator from SB and test there and get correct voltages.
Reconnect, remove green wire to cyl, same as before, voltage on meter when I stop cranking.
So the stator and trigger are generating correct voltages when NOT connected to SB. All resistance is good also on all components.
JUST REPLACED SB 30 min ago, exact same issue!
Also, the engine will randomly lean pop (doesn't sound like a backfire) if I crank it for more than 5-10 sec, but never starts.
It sometimes sounds like it's going to start when I stop cranking as above when the voltages appear as you can hear and see the engine kick.
Also, I've tried disconnecting kill wires, yellow to rect/reg, but still the same. This engine has a R/R not just the reg as shown in parts.
It has new battery, new starter I replaced last year and of course the engine ran great when I had it then.
What am I missing here?
