    82 running on 2 cyl

    Alright, did the swap at the connector, and as I thought it would, the firing order is 180deg out of order. I think at this point all I can do is replace pulse gen.

    How do I swap with such a small / tight connector. Plus will that also throw the whole firing order out of wack?

    Alright, another reading with engine running; ohm reading @ pulse gen connector, 3&4 = 13M ohm, 1&2 = 15M ohm. Has anyone heard of or used these readings or what they may signify? Remember engine running

    Ok Im doubting my latest thought. If I have a ground in the pulse gen as I think I do, then why are my resistance readings good? 580ohms for both pulse gens. No shorts to ground.

    Ok I did the test w/unpowered test light, ground is good, but if I connect test light to ground and touch the blue connector on the left coil (#3&4) while running the bike stutters a little. If I touch the yellow connector on the right coil (#1&2) there is NO stutter but in both cases the test...

    These are great ideas, thanks for everyone's help. I have to go teach a motorcycle safety class, but as soon as I get home I am going to try these ideas

    82 running on 2 cyl

    I've looked at that connector, looks good and clean. I did a voltage check at that connector (not in the book) but both pulse gens read .8 vdc. Again I do not know what if any voltage reading should be at this connector, but they were both the same. Between the voltage and resistance for...

    82 running on 2 cyl

    Thanks to every one who responded, but let me bring everyone up to speed. Starting at the plug caps, I took them out of the circuit and tested with a 5K ohm reading on each. The circuit in question (3&4) cly has a new coil (now I know I could get a defective part, but the current coil is doin...

    82 running on 2 cyl

    Ok I need help, my 82 is only running on two clyenders (1&2) the other two have weak sparks and cut out at 3500 RPM. spark units check out fine, coil checks fine, can not find problem.
