No spark to spark plug

Possible reasons for no spark on an Echo PB-250LN include:

1. Faulty Ignition Coil – Even if tested within specs, it may still fail under load.
2. Improper Coil Gap – Ensure correct spacing between the coil and flywheel.
3. Damaged Woodruff Key – A worn or sheared key can affect timing.
4. Defective On/Off Switch – Though tested, disconnect it to rule out failure.
5. Bad Spark Plug – Use only the recommended NGK BPM-8Y (or BPMR-8Y in Canada).
6. Grounding Issue – Ensure all grounding points are clean and secure.
7. Internal Engine Issues – A deeper mechanical failure may be preventing spark.

Checking each component systematically should help identify the issue.
