New to me sled this year. Great shape pretty low miles judging by the condition.
My 7 y/o rides it and has been out about 5 full days this year plus multiple laps around the house. Has run like a top until last ride.
Bogged at part throttle for about half day then running great again. Attributed to a fuel issue or something? Crap in the carbs maybe. Never cleaned them out since it ran so well but did sit for several years prior.
Then end of the day it just died on him. No spark.
Checked continuity on all 3 kill switches, operational. Not a chaffed wire anywhere to be seen. Lighting coil on the stator works can see the headlight when trying to start.
Thinking either the stator or ign coil crapped out.
How would I test either of them. Thanks.
