welll heres how it went down, started it idled for 30 seconds i gave it some gas and died... checked for spark and nothing. checked kill switch, elect. connections were tight and other wires were all tight, still nada not even a tiny spark. i will tear it all down tomorrow to take readings on the coil and stator.... i assumed cdi since this same thing happened to my blaster. unfortunatly i have no one near me to swap cdi's with to check that so i guess ill have to be out a freakin hundered bucks i dont have

ok so it turns out i wasnt the sharpest "TOOL" in the shed today....
it was the damn spark plug, i noticed it would spark if i held away from cyl. but not when grounded against it. swapped a new plug in and bam half kick, it fired right up!!!! thanks brit for helping me look in other places... new plug 4 bucks i almost bought a used cdi for 50 bucks and didnt need it.. my "genious" clouded the obvious
