I have an 85 honda 4wheeler and I have replaced the cid and the stater, in the pull cord compartment. Still have no spark what else could it be? Any help would be appreciative.

Thank You

One of the major problems with electrics is they require a good ground. Many have pulled out their hair replacing parts only to discover the problem is ground.

Make sure all devices are grounded. This is more of a problem with left out in the rain or in very humid climates. Also check the kill switch, it could be faulty, like grounding out, disabling a flow of electricity to the components to the plug.

Also check the coil. I could go on but the best is to start at the plug and work backwards, proving to yourself each item is solid and flows electricity.

Best of luck.
