My CDI went bad, found the side was blown out. Put new one on, and all the voltages read good. 3 weeks later, it blows again. Found the in line fuse off the positive battery, was melted. Replaced the fuse holder and the fuse blew as soon as I hit the starter. smoke from the area of the CDI, Put a new fuse and tried it, and everything works good, except there is no spark. I am thinking either I have a direct ground on the wiring harness, but more likely a stator that intermittently goes to ground. What is your experience on this issue?
