    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.

Does anyone know what the ohms across a coil should be?

Also, what should the ohms across a plug boot be? Is 11K too much?

Is there a way to replace plug wires without replacing coils? Maybe a splicer?

Finally, I'm guessing that just about any old jap bike coils would work?
 
There was a thread a while ago in which it showed grinding some of the plastic off the side of the coil so you could remove the plug wire from the coil. Some of the Suzuki coils of the early 80s had non-removable wires so you kind of had to butcher the casing to get the old wire out. But that being said some of the coils had replacable wires.


:D**Hijack in progress**:D

Does anyone know for sure if the 83 750E coils had replacable wires?

Stock coils should read 3 - 5 ohmn across the primary side, 30 - 35 ohmn across the secondary.

A good upgrade is to get a pair of the "green" (5 ohmn) Dynatek coils, with a new set of wires/caps. Z1 is a good place for these...

The resistor caps should read about 5k ohms.

NGK makes a splice for installing new plug wires. They should sell them where you buy the resistor caps.
