That guy has not been around for years.
I would think Ebay would be the best bet or another member here.
These things don't go bad. They are very reliable. I would check everything else first. Broken wire ?? Bad switch ?? Pick up coil gap ?? Sheared key on the flywheel ?? Bad coil ?? Bad coil wire ??

I used a spare good coil, no spark. I can jump the switch tomorrow to verify that as well. I can also check the key as well, but with all the ATV's I've owned throughout the years, I have yet to see a sheared key. Yup, I even owned 2 FL250's. I looked at the manual and they state a special tester to test the CDI (Capacitor Discharge Ignition) and Rectifier. I am only going off the original thread as his CDI (Capacitor Discharge Ignition) was faulty thinking maybe this is a known issue on 30+ year FL350's

I think I have seen two sheared flywheel keys here. But don't quote me on that. One for sure because I told him to check it and sure enough -- damaged key. Not sure of the reason though. It's an ugly job but then you can eliminate that. Also several high tension leads corroded at the sparkplug cap.

Just to followup on my no spark fix. It was the stator being covered in oil oil. Cleaned it up and she fired right up.
