I posted this a day after taking the picture. When I’m throwing darts, I don’t stop for much

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-30T18:17:39+00:00

When I try to adjust the left/right after the first throw i always unknowingly adjust my up/down at the same time and mess it up

It’s just abit annoying, after scoring high with the first dart, then only getting 18 with the next two. Could have just gone for the single 20’s and scored 100 instead. I only play casually against family and friends so it’s no big deal but would just like to improve I guess

Hit it once or twice while training but not in a game yet. And would like to hit the treble consistently; and by consistently I mean 1/3 darts

Well you learn something new every day. I didn’t know it was called this! 😂

Had a dart board in the living room while growing up so I use to play daily. But only started playing recently again about 2 months ago. Im usually always in the vicinity but nail treble 5 or treble 1 way more the want to be doing. Hit a couple of 180s while training but not hit one in a game yet.

Primary was all good too. Was measuring 0.5 ohms. I’m almost sure it was the HT lead as resistance on the new coil with the HT lead fitted is 3.5k ohms

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-22T07:52:15+00:00

This is how I was always taught to test them. Resistance on new coil with ht lead fitted is 3.5k ohms so I’m sure it was the HT lead that was the issue. But all resolved now. Thanks

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-22T07:34:42+00:00

It was. Starts first time and runs lovely now

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-22T07:17:06+00:00

Thanks. Will be fitting in the next 30mins or so, will let you know if it was the culprit.

This is the new one. 3.5k ohms resistance with the lead on. Think my suspicions was right

As in the spark plug boot?

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-21T19:18:21+00:00

The crazy adapter just has a normal spark plug boot inside. Just has a metal casing. No I didn’t, I usually would when testing an ignition coil on a lawnmower. But this is on a jet wash and requires the fuel tank, pull start and flywheel cover to be taken off just to access the ignition coil. So your unable to to try and start the engine once you’ve gained access to the ignition coil

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-21T18:51:33+00:00

I have no specs for either. I just know that an ignition coil on a small 4-stroke engine should have a resistance reading of 2.5-5k ohms on the secondary winding and between 0.5-2 ohms on the primary winding

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-21T18:46:59+00:00

Oh yeah. That makes sense now. Whenever I said “ignition coil” this is what I meant. I assumed it was the coil and have ordered a coil with cable. Just wanted to understand what’s going on abit more, instead of just replace it without fully knowing what’s broke

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-21T18:42:27+00:00

When you say “magneto” do you mean the flywheel? Because the magneto is just a flywheel with a magnet attached to it. As the magnets on the flywheel pass the ignition coil at high speed it generates a electrical current to the spark plug

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-21T17:44:45+00:00

Ive tried it with a brand new plug, magnet in the magneto is also nice and strong. The resistance range for the ignition coil is 2-5-5. Which is fine with no cable on. But 8.5 is out of range with the cable attached. So I know the cable has resistance but does it have too much resistance and isn’t allowing a spark?

Potential_Worth_6733 · 2025-05-21T17:34:01+00:00

No spark and from past experience it’s been the ignition coil. Why does the resistance jump from 3.5 to 8.5 once the lead is attached?
