    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Gday all,
Im currently chasing the coil specs primary and secondary resistance values for a GSX1100 efe 84 model.
Ive searched the web to the best of my very limited ability but no sch luck.
Buying one really isnt an option as Im not really needing any other info as Im not using any other component from the bike.
Cheers

Mr. Sidecar44,

My manual for the GS1000e/f says 2 to 6 ohms for the primary and 11K to 17K ohms for the secondary. But there may be a slight difference for your model. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. Perhaps someone will be along soon with the manual for your exact model. I'll just give myself a blue screen of death now. :-D

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

Mr. Jaguarjoe,

Yes, you are correct. I apologize for my oversight. I will edit my previous post.

Thank you for your indulgence,

check both to see if there even close to each other. wright down the ohms reading. if you have a budy or a bike scrap yard neer you should be able to find the same coil. check the ohms on theres. :)

run the bike till its hot then recheck. some times the coil will brake down during a heating cycle.

it is all ways a good ideal when the cash is there to update the coil, and keep the old set for truble shooting.

if your bike has points. i would check the capotor for brake down. a cheap trick is to find out how many mf your cap is then get one at radio shack that matches. put some crimp ends on it then swap out the caps. just rember to put the ground end to the frame.
 
Thanks guys
Finally got the issue resolved........1 dead ignitor box!
Coils checked out within spec.
