Default Suzuki 250 LT engine ... need some help

So i've got this old beast from a mid-80s era quadrunner. Junkyard quad, chopped the front for the Sunl and am thinking about using the engine for the rockhound. Dug into it this morning. While i don't have a compression tester fitting that fits the plug (13mm thread i think) comp seems good. fiddled with the harness, which is mostly intact and took a 150 gy6 coil and gave it a pull.

I got one spark at the start of the first pull, then nothing.

Messed a round some more, hooked up a battery and got the starter to work

Can't get spark back though.

took the suzuki's plug and gy6 coil, plugged it into the rockhound and got good spark, so i know it didn't smoke the coil.

it looks like the suzuki has a "hardwired" cdi. the only leads out of the engine that i can find are blue wires coming off the back of the case, which i think are for speedo or tach.

This should have a stator and wires out of it for ignition, but i can't spot them, unless they are the blue leads.

If anyone has any experience with one of these old things, i'd appreciate any help on it.
