Coils

[Anonymous]

I am having a little problem with my 82 GS300. I had a carb rebuild, I put the carb in, Hooked up the hoses, got it all set to get th engine running. Had the engine cranking, Nothing, Sprayed some starter fluid into the cylinder, Nothing. Checked everything out, Pull off the coils, did a test on them, A test to the primary + & - connectors came out fine, In range for the ohms. Now the secondary - & plug cap which should be 22 to 25 ohms was showing 14 ohms. Now bike bandit wants 84 dollars a pop. Now I'm just learning bikes. It seems the coils and the wire are one piece. Anyone know if they can be seperated and I can just add new wire.

Any info is appreciated.

The wires are just held to the coils by the little plastic clips and a small amount of glue. They will come out. Just use 7mm wire to replace them and make sure you have a good connection on the plug caps.
