Hey all, just replaced my old 462 with a 583 I picked up. 583 sat for several years (3 I think) without being ran. Got everything in and no spark at all. Replaced coil and wires and completely bypassed ignition/killswitch/teather etc. Im thinking the mag needs to be cleaned but figured id ask before I pull the flywheel and start on that. Sled is an 84 MX motor is from a 89 I believe but all the wiring was identical.

Are you using the 583 CDI box ?
No I never replaced the CDI box, are they different? I have the one from the 583 (got the whole sled)

Uh...Yeah they're different
Hmm wasn't aware they were differnt, would that create no spark at all though?

It's pretty safe to say that you should be putting ALL the electronics from the 583 in there too. nevermind the switches and that stuff until you get all the rest of that stuff in there. If still no spark then you might want to take a look into the stator and pickup coil. maybe clean 'um up a bit and check the gap of the pickup. I've had these problems before on my banshee. Always seems to come back to the stator and pickup coil.....
