Super Jet no spark in squarenose????

this projest ski i just picked up had spark. it seemed weak to me but would always start.

was testing it at the lake yesterday and it quitting starting and i cant see any sign of spark. removed the sparkplug boots and trimmed back to good wire and still nothing.

any ideas on what is going on would be appreciated.

thanks

Unplug the black and white wires from the start/stop switch to prevent it form grounding out and try starting it, Switch may just have a bad connection and be acting up.

looks like you have to open up e box, hopefully it wont be a horror story in there, could be a bad conncetion

just to follow up, it was a bad cdi.

first weak spark then no spark. switched out different cdi.....spark

put old cdi back in.... no spark.

i had never had one of those go bad. thanks to sdiddy for insisting on trying that first.
