Hoping there is someone on here with more brains than ive got!! (Not a difficult thing )
Ive recently got a Kawasaki 750sx stand up jetski Got it given by a relative who was emigrating to Oz so it stood me at £0.00
He couldnt get it to run for more than a few seconds and gave up with it so I have inherited the problem.
I know the problem is with the ignition side of things. When the plugs are out you crank the engine and get a good strong spark for about 2 seconds then nothing.
Up to now ive replaced the following
New battery
New coil and HT leads and plug caps
New Plugs
Replacement CDI module that i removed from the same model of jetski and saw running before it was removed so i know its a goodun!!
New stator/magneto assembly
I think that pretty much covers every part of the ignition system!! oh: That little lot stands me at about £400.00 so its still a cheap ski as they seem to sell for about £1000.00
Anyway changed all of that lot and ive still got exactly the same problem, its totally flumexed me and i am now at the point where im not sure what to do next (apart from take it to the local boat yard and leave em to it, but its now become a battle of wills between me and the bloody engine!!! and i intend to win )
If I try to start the engine it will kick into life straight away and run for about 2 seconds then die (same thing i get with the plugs out).
Anyone out there got any ideas what i might be missing?? Ive cleaned out the petrol tank and put new fuel/oil mixture in it, but im 99% positive the problem is with the ignition side.
All suggestions gratefully received as always :thumb::thumb:
