Ignition Coils

[2wheelN00B]

Hey,

I'm replacing my ignition coils and the OEMs I ordered have been replaced w/one SKU. The guy from Flemington yamaha (partforyamaha.com) said sometimes they redesign certain components so you can use one part for both. I received one in the mail today, waiting for the other.

Here are my old ones...

Which were obviously designed mirror image for each side of the frame...

Here's one of the new 2...


So,it will fit fine on one side, do I need to move the 'bolt posts' to the other side for the other one and mount it upside down? Then, how do I know which wire goes to which cylinder? The old ICs had the positions marked. These dont.

Thx

Just flip it and install it. Which wire goes to which cylinder does not matter on the single coil, so long as each coil is connected to the correct pair of cylinders.

One coil gets hooked up to the #1 and #4 cylinders, the other to the #2 and #3 cylinders. The cylinders are numbered 1 through 4 from left to right as seen when sitting on the bike.

For the cost you should have bought a pair of Dyna coils
