2strokeviolence is an unknown quantity at this point
Default my honda got weak spark and won't start.

okay, this might be the wrong place to post this question, but I'll give it a go.
I recently purchased an old honda scooter\moped thingy, it's an old PX-R 50.
I got it because I want to use it to get from and to work during the winter.
but the thing won't start. it gets gas, the top-end and the cylinder is fresh, all the gaskets are new, compression is awsome for a 2-stroke 50cc, but the spark is WEAK!! if I unscrew the plug-cap and kick it, it will spark from the lead to metal without any problems, but with the cap on and a plug attached the spark gets so weak you can barely see it, what could be the cause of this?? anyone?

new cap and new plug maybe. look inside and make sure the caps not rusted or corroded.

I've replaced the plug and confirmed that the coil and plug cap\lead works. I took it off the bike and installed it on my pitbike and it fired on the first kick, I'm thinking a corroded stator, anyone got any good ideas?

your pit bike might not take as much of a spark to run.. it still may be the coil...

the coils look identical, and the scooter is a 50cc 2-stroke and the pitbike a 110cc 4stroke
