    CRF-50 Spark problem

    by jmcgill » Tue Jul 12, 2011 4:35 pm

    My son had his CRF50 out a month or so ago, and I hosed it off to clean the mud off of it before putting it back away.

    Next time I went to start it for him, I got nothing in terms of the motor starting.

    So, I took the plug out, and turned the key and switch on, and tried to kick it while having an assistant touch the plug to the block to test for spark. I got nothing at all.

    Funny thing is, when I took the plug out and kick it, I can hear an audible spark, and have actually shocked myself while doing this.

    Any idea about what's up there?

    Thanks for any help!

    Bad spark plug. Try a new plug and see what happens.
