make sure all wires are pressed on the cap and coil and plug ends tight/ snapped in place......there could also be a loos connection on one of the primary ignition components such as coil, tfi harness, stator in dizzy ect ect..... check all ignition system related wiring and or connections

thanks...I found it...the problem was the linkage between the harness and the coil...the green inlet wire was plugged out.
