Hello! First post here!
I have an 87 Enticer 2 up longtrack with the 340T motor that I am trying to get going for an ice fishing sled. The engine on the 87 Enticer was junk, but I had an old Excel V, which might be an 83? that has a good, running motor. Had it running around the yard after cleaning the carbs and changing the gas. So I took the motor out of the 83? and put it in the 87, same motors, but the wiring is different colors and I can't make head or tails of it.
The 83 motor has the following wires coming from it- Black, White, Yellow, White with Red Stripe, Yellow with Black Stripe and brown. All are bullet connectors.
The 87 chassis has Red, Brown bullet connectors and then a 3 wire plug connector with Yellow, Black, White with a Red Stripe.
There is also a sperate Black and Orange that I am pretty certain goes to the coils, it's the only wire long enough and the colors match.
Anyone have any ideas? I can't get spark going no matter how I hook things up. The 83 motor has electric start that has been disabled. Also, the black wire coming straight from the old engine was never connected, it's cut, but it ran like that.
Any help is appreciated!
