Your reply to @user-xq49erz is exactly what my 2005 Honda Rancher 400 AT is doing! As long as I am cranking on it, it won't start. But as I let off on the starter button it tries to and sometimes actually starts. And it also will start when using the pull starter. Is it like my 67 Mustang? It has a two sided ignition circuit. One higher voltage for starting and one lower voltage for running. I have the Honda tore apart now and am looking for a cdi box to replace it. Or is there a cheaper and better solution?
That is a peak voltage adapter. Meters like this do not read fast enough to capture the peak voltage in AC current like what we have here. Thank you for watching.
Before I even watch this video when he puts the wire to the engine and turned the engine over, the very end, when he stopped, cranking it, sparks for a second
I went back and watched and you are right, There was one spark at the very end of cranking. After letting off the starter button. Thank you for watching.
That happened because the spark system was in good shape, but was being halted by a peripheral fault (blown fuse and carb heater). I’m currently tracing a fault on a 1982 Honda Sabre. It too sparks for a moment, but that’s all.
Where is the air temp sensor located?

The may be a cheaper solution but it will not be better than an OEM part. Thank you for watching.
What did you plug into the multi meter? Could you not have just put it on DC Volts, and use it without whatever you plugged in?

i need help i had the same issue, my quad just shut off i was riding it.....its a honda rancher trx350 2000
