a few things to try ...
Main fuse? .... battery voltage, below 10.4 volts?.... for starters .... try hooking the batt up a charger to it and see what happens.80G Mini-bagger

Ive checked all fuses and I have power, Im pretty sure I have found all the safety shut off switches and either made sure they worked or by passed them. Also I check my pick up coil for resistance and all I got was .11 ohms, but I don't know if that is correct or not.

Not sure what else you've done yet but ...
Although you may have enough voltage to crank the starter, if the voltage from the battery drops below about ten and a half volts, you will not have enough juice to fire the plugs. Gotta' be sure of the output voltage .... soooo .... If you haven't done this yet, hook up a small battery charger then crank .... and then see what happens80G Mini-bagger
