Took my 2003 Joyner Sand Spider out for ride today to make sure everything is working before memorial weekend and it ran fine for about the first 30 minutes. Then it died and would not start. I had to push start it and it ran for a bit longer then started mis-firing, bogging down and then dying. I checked the fuel pump and it works fine and fuel is moving throught the carb. So I dont think its a fuel problem. I could really use someones help diagnosing the problem. I think its electrical, but i'm not sure where to start. I replaced the ignition coil, spark plugs and plug wires about 3 months ago. I also had to replace an inline 30 amp fuse box becuase it was cracked and the fuse was kinda melted.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated

Roy

Check the condition of your rotor, distributer cap, plug wires, caps and plugs.

Thanks for the advise. I actually found the problem. I had a groundwire that was frayed and rubbing against he frame. I replaced the groundwires (I replaced all of them) and I am not having any problems now.

Thanks for the help!

Roy
