Stihl MS290 sparkplug boot repair

18 years ago

Had some trouble starting my saw this weekend, and finally went through the usual triage of small engine repair. Removed the spark plug (it was wet), so fuel was not a problem; finger over the hole, got plenty of compression, but when I went to check for spark, the boot came off the wire. There is spark coming to the little wire "nub" (it shocked me), but the boot is not connected properly, and not giving a spark.

My question is, how do I repair this? Do I need a new boot assembly? Do i need to replace the whole spark assembly? If its just the boot, do I just slid a new one on?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Erik
