I have not been able to solve the problem, so I'm going to start replacing parts. Does anyone know if a coil & cdi box taken from 1990 sp spi xp 580 is capatable with a 1992 XP Twin Carbs? Dealers have been no help...they want you to buy new which I understand.

Thanks
 
What exactly have you done to diagnose your problem. Replacing parts can be costly, and it might just be a bad wire connection.

Ignition?......

Scot, are you sure about that?

From what I've read, all the 587 engines from 89 thru to about 94 all used the CDI (capacitor discharge ignition) systems. There is no multi purpose electronic module. Just a simple ignition system with a rev limiter.

Yooper, look at the system you have. If your ignition module has 5 wires, a black wire and a white/black wire to your coil, a black and black/red wire from your magneto with a black/white wire that doubles up to your rev limiter and the model your looking at to replace it with has these same 5 wires, then chances are, it will work.

The only incompatiblity I can see in the older skis are those after 1995 and the DC-CDI ignition system.

Scot says it won't work. I see he has older skis also. So, if he's seeing something I'm not, I think he may be able to clear this up for us........it could be just a plug type not the same........:cheers:
