[QUOTE="nofear, post: 667359, member: 47038"] i have a 1988 cr 125(i know its old). i rebuilt the top end, installed new fmf reeds, and have put around 10 hours on it since. it's been acting up latley, sometimes it starts easy as hell sometimes not at all. also, its been fouling a lot of plugs, and i know the card is right cuz its all set stock. yesterday i was cruizing down back roads at about 1/2 throttle. i came to a stop at a stop sign, and the bike died. tried starting it, it wouldn't. put in a new plug, still wouldn't fire. i ended up having to pull start it, and even that took a few tries. after it got running, it ran strong. got the bike home, let it sit for about an hour and tried starting it again, it wouldn't start. i've yet to run a compression test, but i don't think thats the case. the reeds should be fine, the carb is right, i'm thinking it could be the ignition? i just replaced the stator coils a few weeks ago, those should be good. it does have a cdi box, could that be bad? maybe even the rotor? thanks [/QUOTE]
