1984 Honda TRX 200 No spark.

Hope someone can help with this one.

We took our 1984 Honda TRX 200 to the shop and they had it for about 2 weeks before they finally called and said that they had cleaned the carb and changed the battery and that it had started up.

We went and got it and when we got home it would not start so we called them, they said bring it back in, so we did. They called us the next day and said they changed the spark plug, and that it was running. We went and got it again and it ran when we drove it off the truck.

We parked it for about an hour because we were going to get ready to go on a ride. Well, it wouldnt start again.

So we called them and they said the last thing they could do was order a new CDI box and put that on. I decided to just buy it myself, so I didnt have to pay them labor again. We put the new one on today and its still not starting.

Does anyone have any ideas on what we could check to see what in the world is going on with this thing?:aargh:

Please and Thank you

So I would first start off by checking for spark. If you don’t know how to do this it’s simple.  Take the spark plug out and plug it into the spark plug wire and put the bottom of the spark plug against the engine so it’s touching a good metal part of the head  and crank the engine. There should be a good clean blue/orange spark at the plug.  If not try the old cdi and repeat. Make sure the run switch is on.  If you have spark then great it will be a fuel issue.   Try this and get back to us.
