What type of plugcap was originally on that ignition, Arlyn? The old style with the two blobs of solder holding the halves together?
It was the bayonet type that required the spring. The replacement has the compression spring. So, at this point, who knows if the problem at the plug cap caused the problem near the ignition unit or what happened. The ignition unit itself is still firing. Glad that headache is off the work bench and back in the hanger.
With the new ignition the Saito 125 fired up easily and is happy again.
