no spark

have a Sachs Seville(1980)...can't get any spark....checked points,look ok...any other ideas?................Thanks

"look OK" isn't good enough

look above.. see 'resources'?...click on that

then click on 'articles'

then find the article "How To Fix your Moped"

scroll down to see the part about cleaning and setting the points.

then test again (with a new spark plug)

If that doesn;t work

then check all the electrical connections going from the points to the coil

If any are suspicious... run a 'hot wire' straight to the coil

then test it

You probably think the coil is bad... but they ALMOST never are.
