I Fixed NO SPARK on a Honda TRX with a $5 Pit Bike CDI - Then Something VERY BAD Happened

Ooof! Almost sounded like a 2 stroke when she came to life! Cheers to future content!

[@ThisOldTrike]

And great job with all the diagnostics!

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

Ya, I was a little surprised when she lit up. I've never ran in to a lower end problem before. First time for everything!!

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

Thanks! I hope all the info I recorded was correct :) I don't want to lead any one astray.

[@timrudd9402]

Great video , Can you send me the pin outs for the Chinese cdi and the Honda cdi please ?

[@waynekorzan2496]

Great Video! Rod knock polka.

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

It will live again one day :) I need a backup engine for the XL

[@theDeeJayCee]

Had the same issue with my ATC250ES, swopped out the old CDI with a new one and she purred like a kitten. With regards to the lower end, you are on your own (",) Would love to see a video on fixing up that lower end though.

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

Thanks again for stopping by! I'm definitely going to tear the engine down one of these days. I'll be sure to get video of everything!

[@jonathandavies2342]

I have the same issue so giving it a go thanks buddy really didn't think it would be CDI but everyday is a learning day

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

Ya, I was not expecting the CDI to be bad either. Let us know how yours works out!

[@briarmcdowell7315]

Thank you man I got a trx 125 for my siblings for Christmas and it's got the same problem

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

Cool. Let me know if you get it running? I just picked up another one and I'll have another video getting that one running out really soon

[@refugeinc.159]

My condolences.

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

No worries. It will live again some day :)

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

This is exactly what mine is doing ordering a cdi now

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

I use those pitbike/atv wiring harnesses a lot on my custom Honda stuff. Best of luck on your project!

[@stevenwatson2800]

Great video. Thanks!

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

Thanks Steven. Glad you liked it and thanks for watching!

[@swstunts]

My 95 300 ex is doing the same one spark maybe then none I'm going to start hear . ..I've also heard puting cdi in oven at 265 for 15 min works ?

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

I might give the oven trick a try. Thanks for watching!

[@joshuacampbell9990]

Knock knock Who’s there? Bottom end Bottom end who? Keep me running and we’ll meet face to face!!

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

haha. love it! I am looking for a new crank and rod for this guy right now. Hoping to have an engine tear down and rebuild video out here soon! Thanks again for watching!

[@tomburdett6639]

👍👍👍😁

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

Thanks!

[@russhampton6258]

Did it have any oil in it 😂

[@BIGFOOTBIKESANDBREWS]

I found out later, a small screw got sucked down the intake. Luckily it was an easy rebuild. It runs like a champ now!
