Had a homelite super mini VI with no spark. Removed the ignition coil wrapped it tin foil and left it in the oven for 6 hrs at 170 F. Back to life. Thanks for the video.
The black one is the chinese replacement if im not mistaken, and to my understanding it reheats the solder and reestablishes the connection which has deteriorated
Hey ! Thx for sharing. I have a black coil and i have a xl mini automatic. No spark. I better try your method. I thought on my saw it was something wron with condensator or stift..ehh...points ? I measure and diagnose a little and i se... I might try you method. 12 hours seems a little much though...but ok...i do not have a clue. One down here told two hours. I guess there is no scientific to refer to about this method though. I like those saws ! :-) Have several of those. Real good ones. Take care and thx again for sharing !
12 hours is probably over kill for sure i just tossed it in and went to bed, im sure once it his the right temperature the issue corrects itself, hopefully it works on a black coil!
@@bayviewbud1539 Hi ! On my saw...it was irrigation on the points ! I sanded the points and now i got that blue spark ! :-) So my black coil did not get its boil for now. So...there can be several reasons...you do not got spark. Anyway...heard others too had success with boiling the coil.
I had read somewhere that if you baked the original coil it would bring it back to life, i thought it was bullshit but figured id give it a shot and it worked like a charm.
