MY FELLOW ..TRUE 3 WHEELED RIDERS.figure this one out

[pistonhead]

im about to buy a used coil for my 110 any way. But check this out. when i hold the spark plug wire and pull the starter i dont get no shock,but when my leg touches the tire or the frame at the same time.i get good spark.. its pretty fustrating, u would think its the ground wire yet ive tried messin w/ them diff ground and stuff yet no luck. whats my problem ............ im guessin i should try a differnt coil??????????? or can i rig this thing up?????:wtf: :cry:

[pistonhead]

i guess no one knows what my problem is!!!!!!!??????

I am guess maybe voltage regulator is out. Thats what grounds the sytem to the frame to drain off extra voltage from the stator that the lights dont need. And keep the voltage from getting to high that it will burn your lights out.

[pistonhead]

so is the voltage regulator the same as the coil? im talkin bout what the spark plug wire is attched to..:shrug:

[dads]

Rest your hand on the eng. hole the plug wire and pull it over . if you get zapped it works . the frame is the ground for this system so make shore all ground wires are clean. and making good contact.

THANKS FOR THE HELP. ILL TRY THAT.........

[Fuzzy]

Yep try what dads said. And as far as the regulator. It is a small square box bolted right to the frame. And usally it only has one wire going to it.

I believe some of the 110s had points if yours is one of them check condenser!

[family52]

if you hold the the plug wire without touching a ground you will not get shocked the pull start is covered by rubber wich acts as an insulator and so is the plug wire itself, put the spark plug in the plug wire and ground to frame or engine block you should get a good spark!

[pistonhead]

well i did that i put the plug on the spark plug wire .and touched it to the frame i saw no spark and felt no spark.. yet when i touch thewire and tire or the frame i get shocked to hell......and it a new plug and ive tried others
:wtf: :upyours: darn it

[dads]

the coil grounds to the fame so i would run a wire from fram to eng to see if you get spark. the eng may have lost ground some how. do to corosion
