Save yourself some future cross-threaded headaches, anytime your putting something on that has multiple screws, bolts or nuts, don't tighten any of them down before you get all of them started in/on, and that'll go for anything you work on,👍, you done a quality-job on building your bike, and it looks great🔥, thanks for sharing.
when i had a fouled plug i would get a small jar and spray some carburetor cleaner into it and soak the electrode part of the plug for an hour or two.That loosened the crap on the bent piece and it DID start again
I commend you for working on your own bike. Learn how to properly use a Volt Ohm Meter and your readings will be more accurate. When you are checking the Magneto coil, set it at the 2K (Two Thousand) Ohm setting. If the coil is good, it will read in the 300 Ohm area. This can be done before removing the magneto stator from the bike. When mounting the stator, use two business cards on each side (4 cards total) to set the gap for the magnet rotor to the stator before tightening the screws. There is wiggle room to allow this adjustment and properly done, increases performance of the system.
I had the same exact thing happen to me, I was riding, came up to a stop light and when I pulled in the clutch it just died on me, tried to get it to start for 30 minutes and it started and took me maybe 100 feet up the road before dying on me again. That was 4 days ago and I still can’t get it to start. Did a spark test and no spark. Luckily I have a parts engine I can take the magnito out of.
Check those stupid barrel connectors where the wires connect up to the kill switch make sure they're not loose better yet get rid of those stupid butt connectors and solder those wires together also take your magneto cover off unbolt the 4 bolts for your magneto slide a business card between the stator and magneto then tighten your magneto back down this way it ensures you have the correct Gap I ran these bikes for years and I've never seen a magneto go bad
Hey u seem to know alot about these types of motors and i have one thats simmilar but i took it out one day and it worked next it did not and i did nothing to the bike…..
@@robbdoesitall first check to make sure you have spark then check that you're getting fuel like is the spark plug wet or dry if it's dry you're not getting fuel might be worth taking the cylinder top off to make sure you don't have scoring along your cylinder walls if the scoring is too bad you'll lose too much compression and it won't run although scoring is a sign of other worse problems hope that helps if not please give me some more details and I'll try to help you out as best I can
It may actually be a bad loop set but you rarely see those go out unless you had it submerged in water and didn't clean it properly then corrosion can cause a problem but those things are usually bulletproof
What ended up happening was the wires came loose and grounded out to the frame, it shorted out the magneto and fried it, this has already happened twice, from now on I just solder the wires like you said
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼🏁 it shouldn't be called a "Killswitch" It should be called a "Killmagneto" 😆 Racing pro's that know will tell ya to use the "choke" to kill the engine. Best way. 👍🏼
i install a toggle switch on the power wire between motor and cdi using the choke at all only makes it loose a falling shut on you when you let it get too loose
Can you please set down your camera😂, and the drawer with the different sizes of pipe wrench had me dyin . I thought everyone hangs em on a pegboard or wall and uses the lockable drawers for like actual tools . Other than that nice lil bike and video 🤘😎🤘
@@sliprope6674 I rode my red felt liner cruiser 1950s frame 80cc 44 tooth sprocket all winter long but I did modify a couple things I made a couple splash guards
I ran mine today for about 20 minutes and then I parked it for about 3 hours. Now it won’t run but when I’m going downhill and I pop the clutch it will pop every now and then but won’t run. I tested my mag and it was .3 which I guess apparently that means it’s not the issue.
@@yamahablaster5564 Wrong! But okay you keep thinking they are the same thing, go order a magneto next time your coil that attaches to your spark plug goes out, 🥴if you know the difference.🤡

@@m.kasper7646 This channel is shared by me and my friend
It might’ve been hard to tell from the video but I didn’t tighten them all the way until all the screws were in place. Thanks for the concern
@@sliprope6674 that's a good idea

Of course you can fix it you can fix anything on these motors well besides a detonated top end

It was definitely the magneto we think it’s from water damage

Killswitch is fugazy,, toss it and use your choke..trust😎👍

Good to know

Its the magneto/stator cdi units rarely go bad
my friends bikes cdi went to crap after like 2 runs lol
maybe just bad luck with the kit one
Yes we know that’s the part he replaced
Excuse me please,can you tell me the size bicycle you have ?
The tires are 26”
I had the same thing happen and I had to re gap the spark plug
Interesting
Your magneto didn't go bad it was ur cdi when I look at it he didn't check the magnetic so less power to the spark n didn't check his wires
Nope, was the magneto, this is the second time it’s happened and it was due to water getting inside of it and causing it to short out
@@sliprope6674 damn bro thats what it sounds like happened to mine
Can you please set down your camera😂, and the drawer with the different sizes of pipe wrench had me dyin . I thought everyone hangs em on a pegboard or wall and uses the lockable drawers for like actual tools . Other than that nice lil bike and video 🤘😎🤘
your CDI or magneto maybe foul
It was the magneto
@@sliprope6674 I figured it was that when you weren't getting spark
It seems to be a common problem when you get water in there

You tap on the magneto cover & say " could be the coil" hahaha! 🥴 Painful to watch
They are the same thing, magneto, coil... same thing

@@m.kasper7646 the spark plug is attached to the cdi smartass, look up motorized bike coil and it’s called the “magneto coil”

@sliprope6674 my bike had weak spark but it somehow wouldn't fire up though
