Making Dyna green coils fit in a GS

Here we go....
They don't fit. The output posts hit the mounting bracket.


So get your grinder warmed up and slice away... and make a plunge cut. DO NOT cut from ends, you have to start in middle !




Finish it with a Dremel.



Test fit, then shoot with a little paint to prevent rust. Right side, lugs pointing forward per instructions.

Do they have to point forward ? I want to install them pointing rearward, so I can use the stock primary wires off the old coils. The wires are not long enough to reach the front of the new coils, and I don't have any OEM type connectors to use on new wire.
( left side shown pointing rearward)

Shouldt matter which way they point as long as the right wires are going to the right cylinders.
 
I cant see why it would matter. My stock coils were mistakenly installed backwards by me in the year 2001. I just discovered it 2 years ago....oops. all the wiring was correct so it didnt matter.
 
Custom builders and Harley guys put them all over the place. I had to rewire my primary quick connector on my 2011 Sportster so I could move my Coils and not have the plug wires cross each other because they were exposed and I wanted to clean things up a bit...
 
Thanks guys.
I put them in rearwards, looks good. and just to be safe, I checked the resistance of my old resistor caps before I put them on the new wires.
And one is shot.
3 are 10K ohms, one is 22M ohms.:mad:
I'll lose another week waiting for parts :mad: :mad: :mad:
 
Thanks Rusty !
But the problem is the spring, when I took it apart, I wanted to see how.. umm.. "springy" it was.
It wasn't.
It snapped at 10 deg of bend.
 
mm now i know why i didnt buy Dyna coils. Look ugly and hard to fit, Accel are a breeze but good job anyway

 
A few spacers and longer bolts from Home Depot and your in business

Any thoughts on a replacement spring while I wait for the new caps?

Nice Dyna coils with those? Get some decent NGK caps ffs.
Edit: I see that you are getting new caps ok. Get new wires while you are at it.
 
a heads up....

a heads up....

The Suzuki caps do not come with the rubber seals. I need to replace mine-they have dried and shrunk, likely the cause of the corrosion to begin with.....
 
Just installed the same coils on my GS550. Can anyone tell me which leads go to which cylinder?
