1st: Make sure the wiring is in OK state, ie. no continuity btw Ground (green) & off line (black / white)
DiY something that can measures "peak value"

No continuity between green and black/white, it's odd that it'll spark when I toggle the kill switch

One troubleshooting strategy is removing the key-switch pin from the CDI connector . . to verify the gremlin is in that circuit. If the engine does start, kill it by separating the pick-up/trigger-coil bullet connector.

I will give that a try, I can watch the spark come and go when I toghle the kill the key switch I actually had to play with when this buggy first came to my shop, but has been working since, the circumstances are odd to me

Still no spark unless I toggle switch so I guess it's on to replacing parts, I'll keep everyone posted
