011 AV spark trouble

[bama]

I had this saw ready to go and was working on taching it out. It quit and there is no fire in the wire. Where should I look first? If it is the coil, how do I test it to see if it is still good. ANy help you guys can give would be appreciated.

Check wiring and switch first. Look for bare spots. The switches on these sometimes slip out of place.
Is it points or electronic?

Time to admit a mistake

I went back to it after it cooled down and still no spark. So, I pulled the flywheel to check the points and they were oiled up. I guess I used too much oil on the felt and it dripped down on the points. I cleaned them out and she fired right up.

Thanks for the help, Stihltech.

Next time, I hope I find my mistake before I show you guys how much I don't know!
