96 mxz 583. Trying to troubleshoot the electrical. What does this sound like, don’t want to throw parts at this old sled.
3 nights in a row the sled would run perfect for about 10-15 minutes then die like someone hit the kill switch. Checked for spark first 2 nights after dying and always had spark(not blue strong spark) but just thought maybe wasnt pulling hard enough. Spark was yellow orange and wouldn’t start.
Tonight (3rd time) died after 10 minutes and no spark when I checked right away. Let sit for 10 minutes and then good spark and ran for another 5 minutes and died with no spark at first until I waited and now spark is back.
I hate electrical And wondering where to start
So far:
1. 2 sets of new plugs br9es
2. Trimmed plug wires on both ends.
3. Took apart all connections and sprayed contact cleaner and greased with dielectric grease.
Sled runs strong when running, plugs are nice brown colour.
