i wanted to take off all the lights and blinkers from my 1978 DT 400 and now there is no spark. so i need to know what wires i need to keep and how to rewire them. thanks john

check out the voltage regulator under the seat and also check your reed vavles aint stuck open or sitting away from the block (there situated between the carb and the insulation block on the engine)
