engine turns over no spark

Post by biggkid2 »

i have a 86 spree i put together from a few different sprees- no spark, question can i check the charging coil or pickup coil for resistance, if i put a continuity tester in the coil wire(plug wire) it lights up. i hve a charged battery, engage brake handle,have switch in run position, and - no spark. what should i test in the starting circuit and how. the harness looks good. thanks for helping the new guy!!!

That is the "owners manual"... not a "Service" one... the only electrical section is about checking the fuse.

I read on another thread a user posted useful information which actually described the procedure on checking the coils and everything... i will try to find it

If everyone read the titles to all the differnet forums on the Hondaspree.net they would find this and all the manual needs would be taken care of. :roll:
