    Are these coils going to work?

    I got some coils from a guy for my 82 gs 1100. They are the Dyna coils that have 1.5 ohms stamped on them. Will these work on my bike?

    Most every GS I know of needs 3-5 ohm coils.

      In one word NO you could end up burning up your ign module. Some one tried to use .9 ohm coils I think. they spent lots of time and money trying to figure out why it would not run properly. The GS ign is often refered to as a CDI IT IS NOT a CDI. it is a transistorised ignition and requires 3 ohm coils to work as it was designed

        So would these coils run hotter spark because of less resistence?

          Not necessarily. The big problem is they are going to overwork the transistors in the ignitor. It's the same principle when hooking up too many speakers to a transistorized audio amp. Once the impedance drops too low the amp starts clipping and cutting out. Keep trying to drive the speakers and you burn up the amp.

            Could you run a resistor of some sort with these coils?

              Truth of the matter is that you'd be better off putting your coils on Ebay while at the same time finding the right ones for your bike. Dyna coils are generally an easy sell on Ebay, so you should at least break even.

              From what I've read here, most any coils off a late model Suzuki should work fine. I personally just bought a brand new set of Accel coils and wires for my bike. It set me back $160 bucks, but they work great and give that "hotter spark" you seem to be looking for. Got great service and FAST shipping (2-3 days) from Cycle-Re-Cycle -- here's the link:
