GY6 turns over but does'nt start.

Postby Nathan on Mon Jul 19, 2010 2:22 pm

I have a gy6 150cc engine that's having some problems AGAIN!!! it's not starting up. What happened is i ran it one day because i got some new shocks so i took a 10 minuate test ride and it crank up fine no problems at all. But then 3 days later i go to start it up and the battery is dead so i put it on the charger for about 4 hours and it was turning over great but it wasnt starting.

The first thing i did was to look at the kill switch wires and see if they were grounding and they were not grounded. So next i took the spark plug out and and with it still atachted to the coil wire i touched it to the frame and NO spark. The spark plug when i took it out was black and dry when i rubbed my finger across it. Could it be a fouled plug or something else electrical? I havent tested anything yet because i need a wire diagram for this engine and were to put my volttolmeter wires to test everything.

If the troubleshooting guides I referenced are not helping, download the service manual for the Crossfire at tomberlin.net - It will give you additional meter measurements to isolate your fault.
