Hello,
I am trying to repair my Shindaiwa T242X. I dropped the line trimmer and the ignition coil hit the flywheel, gouging both surfaces. I re-aligned the ignition coil to an airgap of 0.012" and I don't get spark at all. I bought a new ignition coil and only get one spark for every 5 pulls of the rope.
I then bought a new flywheel, same problem with only one spark for every 5 pulls. I bought another new ignition coil, same problem. I then bought a new spark plug, same problem. I checked the operation of the On/Off switch, and that works fine. I also disconnected the connector (between the switch and the coil), same problem.
I don't know what else to do.
Please help,
Stan
