Reply To: Bernard W317 no spark

Even if you get a spark it maybe not good enough. I have had engines running quite well but if you hadn’t been using them at the time or had in the past you wouldn’t have known something wasn’t quite as it should be, i had a engine suddenly go flat running hot with reduced power, it started just fine and even just altering the mixture helped. Took the coil and condenser in for testing, and condenser was completely shot and wouldn’t even test although engine still started and ran, plugs seldom fail unless the engine isn’t running as it should be and again if there is nothing wrong with a old plug use it.
