I got my GY6B engine completely reassembled with a new carb. Turned it over and it idled beautifully for 2 minutes. (I have witnesses) Then, a wisp of smoke cam from the area of the fly wheel and it quit with no more spark. I didn't cry, frustrated as I was. So, I am trying to understand why the ignition would fail like that. I probably have to replace the coil. But, I wondered what would cause that to fail and should I replace the CDI to be sure?

I took some resistance measurements on the generator. Mine has 5 wires. It is unplugged.

Blue/White to Blue/Red = 603 ohms
Blue/White to Green = 158 ohms
Blue/White to yellow = open
White to Yellow = 0 ohms
White to Green = open
Yellow to Green = open
Blue/Red to Green = 440 ohms

Does anyone know if these are correct?
