just replaced stator, powerpack and reg/rect last friday. she started up right away and ran like a charm. 14.1 volts going to new battery. charging as expected even with lights and bilge on.

went back on monday and no spark at all. lanyard in place.

any suggestions?"

"if the timer base/sensor coil is bad, is this a no spark at all condition or is there something else going on here?"
