Hola, hoping to get some input with my XS project bike, having some trouble...
I've been chasing my tail with a weak spark problem. This is a 1980 TCI bike that will start first kick when stone cold and run great until warmed up a bit, then it will begin to skip under load.
Battery is holding a nice 12.5 volts at rest and my volt meter shows a good charging system when running.
I replaced the coil, wires and plug caps after finding high resistance on the secondaries but that didn't fix it.
Also noticed that when the bike gets warm I can get it to skip by beeping the horn, this takes away almost all spark almost like a kill button...hoping this might be a clue...but I don't have a clue why.
Any thoughts???
