No spark on sparkplug - Quad Cycling

then just check if you have spark at any of the sparkplugs...

1. remove one of the spark plugs,
2. re-connect the cable
3. make contact between sparkplug anode and engine (have rubber gloves - it helps... there is 15kv on the sparkplug...)
4. turn engine and check if there is spark in

you can check that on all/any cylinder

if there is no spark - check:
1. starter fuse
2. ignition fuse
3. coil
4. distributor cap if mechanical...

hope this will help you - do not forget to vote...

if you spark a little starting fluid to it does it fire?if so then fuel is the problem then is the gas older than 30 days dump it out and try fresh gas if new gas then open the carb and clean it if it does not fire on starting fluid check for spark if no spark pull the top cover from the engine and look for wiring damage unplug the coil from the engine side of the coil and check for spark if no spark then the coil is bad and if its a riding mower the carb might have a anti back fire valve that could stick closed

change faulty sparkplug or ht lead,check lead by holding sparkplug end near to engine nearly touching,have someone turn engine over whils checking for spark jumping,if spark present then not lead,change spark plug,if sparkplug ok then check pressure in cylinder, poss piston damage

Have you checked that the ignition switch is on. If so, then check the oil level. Then take the sparkplug out and replace. If still no spark, the ignition coil may be faulty. Take the sparkplug out of motor and rest it on the outside of the hole. Slowly pull the motor over and you should be able to see a spark coming from the sparkplug. If there is no spark then there will be a problem with the ignition coil. Put new ignition coil on and test.

to replace spark plugs remove spark plug wire boots. use special sparkplug socket or else you can break the sparkplug. to remove turn ratchet counterclockwise remove all four one at a time, make sure that the sparkplug gap is correct. most plugs come pregapped...read the box it will tell.you. do not overtigheten plug once it has fully seated give it a good snug....if you do one at a time you dont need to mark the spark plug wires. if you mix up the wires your car will back fire which could cause severe internal damage.

#3 sparkplug is not firing at peak performance.
The engine block sparkplug hole had to be re-threaded in order to accept an adapter for the replacement spark plug. The sparkplug is sitting "higher" in the cylinder than the others (not as efficient).
It may even be a different sparkplug altogether in order to accommodate the adapter.

Add a silicone insulator gel (AutoZone $2) inside both boot ends of the sparkplug wires and re-seat them all.

Sparkplug good? gas at exhaust indicates unburt fuel.Try taking oof sparkplug wire and holding to ground metal (not Painted) on bike, do you see a spark?Dry plugs? all Plugs?Check , Coil, Lumpy sounds like dry cracked sparkplug wires.With all Combustion Engines it's either Gas or Spark investigate.Good Luck.

Hello,

Remove both sparkplugs from engine. Plug them back in the sparkplug cables and let them rest on the engine.
Make sure your battery is well charged.
Check for sparks while kick-starting...
Interchange the sparkplugs in the cables:
-Same plug give sparks: replace the spark plugs.
-Same side of engine sparks: interchange the low-voltage connector at the ignition coils.
Give it a try:
Same engine side sparks: Replace the defective ignition coil.
Other side of the engine sparks: Check the circuit harness for loose connectors, and/or Clean-replace the breaker points ( left side of the engine carter ).

VT1100 has two spark plugs per cylinder, the sparkplug caps are snap-ons so they're fairly easy to remove. You need a spark plug socket wrench to remove and replace the spark plugs.
