What you need to do is check the pickup coil and thats easy.
You will need an analog volt meter.
You need to go to the wiring harness connector that goes into the engine mag. then find the connector that the pickup coil is plugged into.
Connect your meter to the wire from the coil and gently rotate the engine crank in either direction, doesn't matter.
The needle on the meter should move, like bounce. If it doesn't the coil is pooched.
If it does move then the CDI maybe the issue.
Hope that helps and makes sense.

i always thought the pickup coil either works or it doesnt? will try that,,.thanks i ordered a CDI anyway.

pick up coil acts like the old points in the old ignition systems. It generates a pulse as athe magnet in the stator passes by.

well the needle on volt meter bounces,. and new CDI didnt help..still spark on PTO side only..so ordered a complete Stator.
