When I was a kid of 6, I rolled one exactly like this and had to have my tongue reattached:(

take the killswitch apart to make sure it is working properly, ive seen those give grief in the past

[jlawson]

the killswitch looks ok.. any other Ideas? points maybe??

pull the spark plug, make sure its clean if your running rich they will foul easy.

Throw it in the trash and get a 4 wheeler? :D

Junior high school buddy was killed on one on christmas day when he flipped it and it crushed his skull :( I hate 3 wheelers.

plug is new.. it has no fire. I had my wife hold the plug while i tried to kick it off.. and nothing!

So many bad thoughts on that visual :p Good way to get bitchslapped too if it shocked her :D Disconnect the kill switch from the harness and see what happens. Is it in gear? check the coil to see if it is grounded. There arent that many components to the ignition on that thing. Should be pretty easy to find.

its not in gear unhooked kill switch and coil is grounded... nothing

[blastap]

when you kicked it over was she holding the plug against the head or somthing metal ,if still no fire start with a new plug cap and plug then work your way back up

plug wire/cap, bad coil :confused:

[jlawson]

used three coils, its a new plug..even went into the points..still nothing. Im sure its something stupid but cant fing it.

[TX21]

Does it have a stator plate?

[BadC91]

i had one i belive it has a magnito that failed in mine causing it to not fire.

I have a 87 trx 125 doing the same thing, no spark, no start. Some quick tests
and found coil was shorted. Replace coil and spark plug, viola, started perfect. Ran great for 30 minutes, started cutting out like loosing fuel, now back to same
problem, no spark. I have noticed that sometimes it will start, neutral light will
be bright green and runs fine for a few seconds. Nuetral light then goes dim, engine starts cutting out, dies and then its done. I can't find any bad connections
, harness ground is good. I'm suspecting pick up or cdi box is causing our problems, anybody got any ideas?? Also I spent the money and bough oem parts which is hard to find and expensive for a 21 year old 4 wheeler.

Stator. I had an '84 ATC 110. Got a little rusted...cleaned it up, then worked fine.
