Anyone try a husky 50 piston in a 45mm 350 cyl?
Other than dished vs flat, there doesn’t seem to be a difference.

Hi I got a 285CD that has lost spark..I look at the kill switch wire and I was in very bad shape. I knew that had to be the problem.Got the flywheel off and very carefully replaced the wire. Put it all back together and guess what no spark. Took it back apart and replaced the plug wire. It looks pretty rough. All back together no spark. Does anybody have any suggestions on how this could be fixed besides replacing the whole ignition? I know the ignitions are really hard to find. I have checked around so far and have found none. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I greatly appreciate it.

After replacing the wires, did you meter them to make sure they have continuity and ground out like they should with the on/off switch in the off position? Have you cleaned the coil, gotten all the crud off of it's metal surfaces and cleaned the flywheel too? Verify spacing between coil and flywheel are correct? Have you tried another spark plug, or the one in question in another device where you can see if it will spark?

Here is another forum link that shows how to modify your coil if you need to go that route:
