My brand Roketa gokart 110cc wont start. All the lights and signals work fine and the starter cranks well but the spark plug is not sparking at all. What problem does this sound like? |

I have a few more details. I tried disconnecting the kill switch and no luck. I jumped the solenoids and no luck. Once again, the starter cranks and all other electrical works fine but no spark from the spark plug. Could this be a bad coil? |

Just trying to eliminate the easy stuff here: Did you try a different spark plug? |

Yes, I tried a different spark plug although the original park plug was brand new since The engine has never fired up yet. Also, I am guessing its not the CDI since I have 2 and swapping them out didn't help. Im guessing the 2nd CDI was some sort of speed govenor. |

start by checking the connections at the cdi, the coil. they may look like they are tight but the wires can push out and not let the connection be good. also make sure its in neutral if its a shifter cart, check the spark plug cap to make sure its in the wire good |

I checked the connections to the cdi and coil and they appear to be tight and well connected. Also, made sure it was in neutral. Still no luck. I will check with a volt meter to see if power is getting through the coil. |

I was checking the coil with the voltage meter when I spotted a dangling, loose connector slightly out of view. I plugged them in and ishe started right up. The quality control at these factories are second to none!  Thanks everyone for your help. Yet another satisfied customer on buggynews.com. |
