[QUOTE="Ol'89r, post: 820494, member: 17212"] scairns. A couple things to check. Unscrew the spark plug cap from the high tension lead. (Wire coming from coil.) Check the end of the wire for oxidation. If the end of the wire has a white chalky look to it or any sign of rust, cut about 3/8" off of the end of the wire and screw the cap back on the wire. While you have the cap off, take a screwdriver and remove the screw from the inside of the cap, where the spark plug goes. Inside, there will be a little resister and a spring. Replace the resister with a piece of copper rod the same length as the resister. This is a radio resister. Also check the pick-up coil. This is the little square coil inside of the right side cover. It sits next to the crankshaft and they are very susceptible to heat. Over time they heat up and the insulation will crack and allow oil inside. You can check it by using an ohm meter on the two wires coming out of the engine case. I don't have the exact values for this but, a good service manual will. Just my $ .02 Ol'89r [/QUOTE]
