Grandson has a Arctic Cat 50cc 2 stroke ATV.. Brought it over a month ago. Said it ran like crap for a year, now will not start at all. I pulled the plug and checked for spark.. OK.. Decided it was the carburetor so i pulled it and cleaned it all up... was not dirty... Remember this think is about the size of a Match Box toy car so EVERYTHING is hard to get to.. Screwed with it for several days, an hour a day, trying different things..Tried 3 different plugs , checked compression OK... Nothing would work .. got fuel, got spark..... Then tried a shot of either.. NO POP ! At this point im thinking the timing is off. Pull the side cover and there is a pickup coil on the outside of the flywheel.. Looks OK.. Pull the flywheel and no point.. It has a stator with 6 coils. 5 of them charge the battery and one puts out a voltage signal to the CDI box that sends a signal to the COIL that fires the PLUG..(per YOU TUBE) ..  ... Well, im still thinking TIMING is off.. Maybe the CDI BOX or weak COIL ??I look on AMAZON and the Coil is $10. , the CDI box is $10. and the stator is in CHINA but i can get one in 2 weeks for $25. ........... i decide to spend the BIG BUCKS  ($45.) and buy EVERYTHING.... Thats the entire electrical system !  Parts came in yesterday and assembled today. Fires on 2 revolutions of the motor !! Success !! ... and im glad to get rid of the little thing.. My hands are TOO BIG to work on something this size !
