Good Morning,

Last night my sons Helix 150 stalled and will not restart. It turns over fine but will not fire. I pulled the plug and it looks fine. It appears that the cart is has little to no spark. I took a spare plug for my lawn mower and tried that to see if there was spark and it appears one time there is no spark, the next a very faint spark.

Any idea which part I should replace? I did try cleaning the contacts on the box that the spark plug wire comes out of but that did not seem to help.

thanks
Jon

check all the electrical connections, specificaly the grounds. they are notorious for getting loose causing irratic spark, Normaly, all of the ignition componets either work 100% or nothing so a hit and miss spark could be a bad connection.
