Question
QUESTION: Im getting only 1 blip of light on the plug when I pull it out of the cylinder when I try to start it by pulling the cord < I seem to get 3-4 motor rotations and it should fire the plug twice for every rotation? replaced coil same thing,
is it the cdi box? cleaned carbs prior to this, gas is there??any help would be appreciated.

ANSWER: Hello Rick:

Make Sure the Harness has a Good Ground. If the Ground is Good, then Replace the CDI Box. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck

Answer
Hello Again Rick:

It is Rare for the Coil/Pulser (CDI Pickup) to go Bad. However, it Does Happen. Most Times the CDI is the Cause for a Problem like yours. If the Dealer is Standing Behind their Diagnostic and they Put the Unit on Test Equipment, then thats the Way to go. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck
