Do I need a coil relay mod?

[Guest]

Just checked my coils last night as per some instructions I found on this board and here is what I found:

Primary side of coils - 4.1 & 4.5 ohms
Secondary side - 25 ohms on both sides
Voltage drop - 1V drop on the left coil (11.53V)
- 2V on the right coil (10.56V)

I've checked and re-cleaned all the ground connections as well as the coil/harness connections. Do I need a relay mod?

How does it run?
Did you clean all the switch contacts in the circuit?
Corroded wire anyplace?

It runs fine. It holds idle really well and revs up easily without hesitation. To which switch contacts are you referring? I only checked grounds and connections from harness to coils. The main ground wire going from the bike frame/engine to the battery has a couple of broken strands - could that be it? I only checked the coils just to make sure they were OK since I tried tuning it with a Colortune and I can't get a blue flame on #2 & #4 no matter how much I play with the screw (these are VM29s BTW). The #2 plug is black with dry soot (rich?) and the #4 has no flame at idle just spark but when I rev past idle is runs fine.

This is nothing that a can of contact cleaner spray can't solve

What is the voltage with the bike running ?? Thats the question
