mariuszaerox 12 #26 Posted July 27, 2020 Hello, in this plug, the orange cable is supposed to give voltage when turning the starter? because it gives 0.20v how much should it be? I removed the black cables from the relay and then the same ... or else a capacitor? I assumed the old one from the motorcycle, but there is still no spark. help....

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,498 #28 Posted July 27, 2020 Hello, in this plug, the orange cable is supposed to give voltage when turning the starter? because it gives 0.20v how much should it be? The orange and yellow wires are for the charging alternator and have nothing to do with the ignition system or spark. The yellow wire powers the headlamps. The orange wire charges the battery but engine must run much faster to produce voltage. With all the small wires disconnected from the engine it should run so remove all of them. Work at getting the engine to run and then we can work at connecting them back on. You may need to clean the point contacts so they make a better connection when closed. Also make sure the wires at the points are not shorted to the engine. That will stop the spark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariuszaerox 12 #29 Posted July 28, 2020 I would also like to bypass the ignition switch and check if there will be a spark, which wires should be bridged so that the starter turns and there is an ignition? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,498 #31 Posted July 28, 2020 Hope you understand this Disconnect all other wires from engine and engine should run. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariuszaerox 12 #32 Posted July 28, 2020 hmm, I know electricity on an average basis, i.e. how many cables do I need for a spark without an ignition switch? only + and - for the starter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariuszaerox 12 #33 Posted July 28, 2020 I think I have to give up, unplugged the ignition, + given from the battery to the electromagnet, weight - from the battery to the engine and then zero spark, cables at the breaker also all disconnected ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,498 #34 Posted July 28, 2020 The wire to the breaker points needs to be connected to the coil and condenser. Just the wire going to the relay needs to be disconnected. Garry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mariuszaerox 12 #36 Posted July 28, 2020 can you have some hand drawing? I also have these cables, rather not original, someone was burying ... and I am weak in this electricity ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariuszaerox 12 #37 Posted July 28, 2020 and a capacitor is needed for a spark? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,498 #38 Posted July 28, 2020 Here is a service manual for the engine. Service manual Section 02 Ignition 17 pages 922KB Found this also https://www.briggsandstratton.com/eu/pl_pl/home.html May not help Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariuszaerox 12 #39 Posted July 29, 2020 so the coil must have this thin cable connected to the circuit breaker? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariuszaerox 12 #40 Posted July 29, 2020 and the capacitor must be selected by number? could it be, for example, from a car? old fiat 126p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

May not be the correct value but should work to get spark. The capacitor must be secured to the engine metal (ground) to complete the circuit. We call them a condenser.

bottjernat1 2,189 #44 Posted July 29, 2020 DId you make sure its grounded properly? LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariuszaerox 12 #45 Posted July 29, 2020 and what should be the break between the coil and the magnet? 0.20 mm or 0.30 ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,498 #46 Posted July 29, 2020 You do have breaker points don't you? If so air gap is .25mm -- .36mm Here is a way to check the resistance of the coil. I don't know the exact values but primary will be low ohms and secondary will be high ohms. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
