As for Humility, interesting word considering you can't even use the word 'your' in the right context

Reformat you're machine with a fresh copy of your operating system?

Your. If you are going to call someone out for poor grammar, at least be correct yourself.

Touche, well caught. Atleast I got it hte second time right?      In my defense, I was writing in a hurry cos I reeeeaaalllly needed to take a wiz

Back on topic: I hooked up the multi metre to the ignition coil as outlined in my manual. its reading was the same as when the test leads were 20 cm apart. I assume that means the resistance is either non existent or too much to measure? If resistance was high, would that account for the extremely weak spark?

Thanks

Did you sell your YZ? I'm wondering if you should have kept it

Nah I didn't sell it and a good thing too. When I get it running my folks will make me decide to sell one and I think it'll be the YZ if all goes well. I can flog it to my next door neighbor whos currently on a fooper and looking to get rid of it for a 250. Its due for some solid engine work too so If I can unload it before it screws up that'll be good.

I see, well good luck with all of it, sorry I couldn't be a help with this, I don't know much about ignition systems and what not.

No worries mate, thanks for your post.

I got the new ignition coil and plug cap hooked up, and now I'm getting consistent, big, fat, blue spark. So thats an improvement. However, still not starting. While the ignition coil was definitely part of the problem its not all of it. My airbox makes a whistlely squeeking noise during hte intake stroke and the bike has very little compression all things considered. Could air be escaping from the cylinder? Piston and piston ring is only about 5 hours old and moves smoothly through its stroke. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks in advance
