Thanks for the battery suggestion. I shall check that out.

Craizeehair:
Probably a(nother) dumb question but could I put a 12v battery on it, just to kick it over with the plugs out and grounded to see if there’s spark at the plugs? Would that cause any damage?

Bryanj:
If its a 12v system no if a 6v yes

Craizeehair:
Presumed that would be the case, it’s 6v so was hoping just that would be ok just to check spark with the kickstart but I’m not in that much of a hurry to do any damage.

Bryanj:
Same resistance but double voltage equals double current which strains insulation, ok for a horn which is only on for a second but not a coil
