What symptoms U got?
Does the engine turn over when you press the start button?
What year? (If I had to guess, I'd say an 80s PP model)

i know what i am doing... just figured i would post this up for a laugh.
this is my dad's coworkers sons ski or something. he couldnt figure out why it wouldnt run, i got home the other day and my dad asked me to look over it.
i think it might need a coil huh?:thinking:
it cranks over but the battery is weak. im going to compression test it with a fresh battery first to make sure its worth even wasting any of my time on.
they did something right though, even though its a PP motor.
It's got a bcw intake and a mikuni 44 sbn.
also has a pjs half pipe. other than that its stock.
but man that splice job is horrendous

Even if it did run, it would probably blow up with those exposed ignition wires. I'd be scared to even crank that thing the way it is. Some people should never be alowed around motorized vehicles with tools.

Give the engine a good cleaning and completely replace the spark plug wires and you should be good to go. :biggthumpup:
I suspect if the engine's been run with the wires like that, they mighta damaged the coil. Might be a good idea to replace that as well.
