295 mci engine no spark

I installed a new coil and igniter on a 295 mci engine and still have no spark, any ideas?

Did you not have spark before you replaced those two items? Was the cart a running cart for you at some point, and what did you do to it that made it not run? My guess is bad ground, or loose wire somewhere, usually at the solenoid or solenoid mounting plate, or possibly at the reverse alarm microswitch.

Were the coil and igniter OEM, or aftermarket? You can do continuity tests on the coil...do some searches and you will find the Ohm ranges that would identify if it is good or not. I don't recall them at the moment and would have to search them myself. There were recent threads that identified them though. If you look through the Gas EZGO section, you will find several threads that discuss this and provide those values. No way to check the ignitor though.
