So...after dealing with broken bendix and bent starter shaft, new starter, still no start...checked a few things and found no spark to the plugs. Had voltage to the coil but no spark.
Long story...but after all of this being my fault, I ordered a new 12v electronic ignition (just converted it over the summer) because when I broke the bendix, I left the key on for an hour so I figured I somked it.
Got the new ignition today and pulled the cap to find the rotor broken to pieces. Hmmm maybe that's why I had no spark. So I pulled out the old rotor I pulled off this fall, put new plugs in and she fired right up. In my trouble shooting of the no start condition, I had pulled the cap and must have not had to rotor back on all the way and she cracked to bits.
Now I have a new electronic ignition. Should I send it back, sell it myself or keep it for if the current ignition goes?
'52 side mount, 12v.
I thought for sure with having the key on for an hour, I smoked it. How long do these last?
