Yale GLC040AFNUAE082:
Spark Problem s/n A809N11053X

Gents, we've got a Yale that seems to destroy igniters. This started out as a no start. Had odd spark, changed the ignitor, fired immediately, ran about a half minute, swore I heard a small pop sound, would not fire up again.
Last time out we changed the igniter, pick up, and coil all at once. Now no spark at all.
Looking for suggestions. Appears to be an aftermarket copy distributor. All of your other basics done. Timing is on, other ignition components have been changed. Voltages present, it is not flooding. By the way it fired immediately, I haven't bother with a compression test.
Does anyone have the readings that your supposed tp get at the terminals on a good ignitor? It seems that Yale does not have that info. Thanks

What is your charging voltage? What is the voltage you are getting at the distributor? I have had alternators blow ignitors. How are your engine grounds?
