No continuity from front to back of my plug cap.

Anything special about the MTA cap.

2009 Sherco 290ST  

 

Am not getting spark and have tried a known good stator. I do see spark when I place the HT lead without cap near ground and push on the kick starter.

What would be a suitable replacement cap here in the USA??? Thanks

I do not recall there being anything special about them other than a 5K resistor. Ebay here we come!

Try a similar cap from any other motorcycle....

Thanks All - Discovered a few things

   Auto parts stores in my area do not carry the appropriate part.

   Found a great replacement at my favorite Yamaha dealer.

  The cap was not my problem - my testing procedure was at fault.

Now to change the coil as it is the last part in my NO SPARK issue.

Borrowing a known good one from a friend - Already swapped the stator and disconnected the kill switch.

Again - Thanks for the help
