thanks

Hey Bob,

what is the problem with yours?

I can get a reading from the multi-meter when use the blue line(15) and common ground(frame), but when I attach the white wire to the coil(ground) from the "black box" I get no spark!! arrrgggg....

Re: electro jawa help...

I don't know. I don't get a spark to start. Just finished building this Jawa, don't even know if my wires are right!
