Had a great trip up north this weekend...

To make a long story short, my sled is running on 1 cylinder. The spark plug wasnt fouled and there was no aluminum on the plug... so basically its not getting any spark. I've heard of others saying it can be an electrical issue.

Im not overly mechanical... so looking for thoughts people may have...

Need a little more from your end. Are you sure there is no spark? Get a new plug and hook it up and let it lay on top of the head. Pull the sled over and check for spark. Good first step.

They are known for secondary coil issues. If you replace the secondary coil it will most likely solve your issue. That's if it doesn't have spark of course but it can have spark cold and when it warms up you can lose spark. We've replaced a lot of secondary coils on the Cat twins around that era. Hope this helps! Kip

Finally had time to look at it...been swamped with work! Sled is not getting spark, so have it narrowed down to at least that I guess. Kip- If it is the coil, what is the cost to get that replaced?
