Guest Scottimuss Posted November 29, 2007 Share #1 Posted November 29, 2007 ok i used all the info you guys helped me with and did the deed removing the fairing (which has several biggy cracks in it i discovered - anyone have one for sale?) and got it all apart but first switched the left front and rear coil wires and the spark plug wires to the cylinders. when i could easily reach them.. put the battery in and.... drum rollzzz!!! it worked fine.... before i decided to do this the spark faded within 5 seconds on the rear left cylinder.... fully expecting that to happen but this time with the front one because of switching the wires around it ran fine... still removed the tci and remounted it to the air box.. i'm taking her for a test run tomorrow if it doesnt snow too much... idled smooth ran great but still had to be put all back together.... so i fixed it by touching it i guess but had you guys not freely offered advice and helped me i would have gotten frusterated and used some elbow grease and a match thank you all again now i know someones gonna say that it was a wire but i know it was my touch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venturous Randy Posted November 30, 2007 Share #3 Posted November 30, 2007 I worked on a friend's 89 with a miss and it ended up being a spark plug cap with a corroded resister in it. I replaced the cap and the bike ran great. Have you replaced the caps yet? RandyA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
