Corvairkid · 05-28-2013, 10:34 PM

I got spark!!!!!!!

SpudRider · 05-28-2013, 10:41 PM

Excellent!

I'm glad you verified your ZS250GS employs an AC-CDI unit.

I wonder if anyone has an accurate wiring diagram for this bike? The only wiring diagram I found for the ZS250GS shows the bike using a DC-CDI unit.

have you tried starter fluid? would be a good indicator if it pops over on starter fluid that theres a carb issue...

Corvairkid · 05-29-2013, 12:04 AM

no i dont have any but i primed the chamber with some gas and put the plug back in as well as shot some fule in to the intake side and got nothing but its late and i might be missing something ill see in the morning its shower time and food time i'm es-static (yes pun intended) and shocked (again) to have spark back!

real punny...

SpudRider · 05-29-2013, 12:09 AM

Now that you have spark, the problem must reside in one of these other areas.

Compression
Air
Fuel

I suggest you check compression first. If compression is low, check the valve lash before you check elsewhere.

I use these feeler gauges, which I bought from Harbor Freight.

The valve lash for your ZS250GS is probably the same as for my Zong.

Yes, I also own the Harbor Freight Compression Tester. It does a good job.
