[QUOTE="KTM/MAICO, post: 159687, member: 20820"] Starting problems usually stem from either the ignition system or the carb. Since you are getting no spark, I'd head in that direction. Check to make sure you are getting a good ground for the ignition system. Remove all the ground contacts, coil, clean the metal areas and reinstall. Make sure you spark plug is grounded. Check your spark plug cap to make sure its installed correctly. Check the kill swicth to see if its working properly. Run some tests with it disconnected when you try to kick it. Also, when you are moving the kick lever do so with authority just like you do when you are riding. Some people push the lever with their hands and don't move it fast enough to generate a spark. Be prepared to buy some new parts and take it to a reliable shop and let them do some tests. Remember, your 82 is no spring chicken. Keep us informed on your progress. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
