I have a 1998 750 F2...It doesn't go out very often. Last time I took it out I had a problem with it missfiring...it stalled and the battery ran flat. Stuck in a new battery and limped home. I tole a couple of parts for another bike, but yesterday I decided it was time to get it back into action.
While I was replacing the borrowed parts I discovered the CDI was covered in really sticky resin. I'm assuming its leaked out from the unit and the unit has burnt out. However, I still get a spark, but cant get the bike to run for more than a moment or twwo.
My question is, is the sticky resin from the CDI? what would make this happen? Will it even give spark if it's in the condition it appears to be in? Should I just buy a second hand replacement?
Appreciate any help on this.
Thanks
