    No spark with COP's?! Wtf?!

    I can have my 89 sitting for weeks and go out to fire it up and it will start right up. I ride for a while or even just let it warm up, turn it off, and it won't fire back up for a while.

    spark plug position

    read somewhere that the spark plug should penetrate 0.125 of an inch inside the combustion chamber for maximium burn, also that you can give more gap to the spark plug when you use aftermarket coils that give out more voltage :ummm:

    Just as the title says. I was riding in town, and the old vmax coasted to a stop. Checked the fuses and they are good. All other electrical works, lights, starter, signals, ect. Will look at it closer tomorrow, but it seems like sudden loss of spark while running isnt very common. Ever...
