1997 Honda TRX300FW Spark Problem

Recommended Posts

My TRX300 only sparks when I left off of the starter button. Installed new coil, new pulse generator{pick-up}, cleaned starter button with contact cleaner the best that I could{sealed unit}, stator looks and smells good, no burnt coils, tested 3 leads from stator for continuity- it tested good, checked it to ground and nothing shorted or cut. Resistance tested very low @ .003ohms unit out of bike. Put back together and still spark on;y when I let off starter button. Also the bike used to kick start easy, now it wont. Help!

      I am looking to replace the Maxxis AT 25x8-12 tires on my Yamaha Grizzly 700 and put on snows.  Going bigger to 27" and wider to 9" or 10" is probably a good idea, yes????? I've heard that Maxxis Zillas are good. 
      I just want to use the quad on the trail to get into the lake and then go ice fishing. 
      Appreciate any and all advice.
      Thank you!

      I finally got around to working on the TRX, this has been an ongoing problem with this machine. This is a machine that we keep on my Fathers property, i dont see it that often, my brother haad it professionally repaired last year and year before same problem, the new starter gears and bypass gears last about a year and the machine is not used that often, he said he was done with it , so i thought i should go take a look. Sure enough the gears were all malled again. 
       

       

      IMG_4910.mov   There is some slack in there but most is taken up by the gear cover,if anyone with history with these machines has had the same problem, let me know your findings. Where i am now im looking for finding replacement honda gears on Ebay and try those. I suspect the original was replaced with aftermarket gears years ago and they just worse quality as the years go by.

      I'm repairing a 96 Timberwolf 2x4. Many years ago a dog chewed the wires that go from stator to the rectifier/regulator, and I've had to use the pull start ever since. Ive since lost the plug for the stator and on the wiring harness side. I'm ordering a new stator that will also come with the female plug that I need to fix it on the wiring harness side, but I have no clue in what position to put those 3 white wires(ones I'm holding with electrical tape on them) back into the new plug. Since they're all the same color, does it matter? Any info on this or pictures anyone has of their own will be very much appreciated.
