Any advice on my '05 Pit not starting? I have searched the "post", (great post btw) checked everything I can think of and am still my wits end. :confused: Any suggestions?

She turns over fine, getting fuel but acts like she isn't hitting. I had her running a couple days prior. It was slow to start the last couple of times (battery was low and needed replaced). I replaced the battery just yesterday (310 CCA) and now she just won't start.

Have you verified spark at the plugs?
Are you flooding it out?
Do you have gas in the tank?
Are you keeping the throttle closed when attempting to start it?
Pull your plugs and tell us if they are wet with gas or fouled or dry.

Looks like I'm not getting any spark at the plugs. Coil problem or EHC? Any thoughts?

Thanks everyone.

There is three wires on the back of the coil. Check to see if one of them broke off. It's happened to me before as they are small and fragile.

Not a bad idea to pull the coil once in a while and look in the female connector of the coil. I had a prob starting and the inside of the coil was black with carbon from arcing. The other connector was fine. Cleaned the connector and bam ran fine.
