Thanks Dingy for the link. I bought another TCI that was bad so I decided to order a new one from Ignitech just tonight. I will be using the information in the links to get mine up and running. I hope it don't take too long to get here, I want to hear this old 83 humming again. Thanks guys for the valuable information that is posted here. Gary

I just discovered that my fuse box ground was off. Will that make the tci not work like it is suppose to? Gary

I have changed the #4 coil and cleaned all grounds. I

Thanks for reply Randy. I will change the #4 coil with one that I know is good and replace the fuel filter just to make sure it is getting fuel along with the fuel lines. What are the chances that 2 coil packs would have the same coil bad in both packs, just my luck. Yes we now have 21 people in town I moved in about 6 years ago. I do love a challenge(1983 Yamaha that has set outside for over 2 years and never started). :bang head::bang head:

New to the forum and first post. I have a 1983 Venture that I am using for the power plant for a Reverse Trike, now I know that a few will sat why not just ride on 2. I have had some major injuries that prevents this from happening. I started with a failed project that someone had got in a hurry to complete, so I brought it to my shop so that I could get some wind in my face. I tore the whole thing apart after I got the venture running, it had not been started for 2 years and the valves stuck for a few minutes, but after some Sea Foam they cleared up and it ran pretty good for something that had not run for 2 years. I then disconnected all the relays and the TCI from the wiring harness to do my welding for the pan and roll cage. Well 2 months later I decide to hook everything back up and test run the engine again. Well it wouldn't start after plugging everything back up so here is what has been done so far: Cleaned all grounds Replaced Carb Diaphrams Replaced Coils replaced plug wires checked fuel pump and relay removed TCI from under frame Repaired starter Here is the problem I don't get fire from number 4 plug. I can get fire from #4 plug if I unplug #3 coil and plug it into #4 coil I get fire to #4 plug. This must sound like I am rambling but I really don't know where to look next for the answer. Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated. Happy Holidays to everyone on the board!

Thanks for the info. SkyDoc I PM you. Thanks again.

I have a 1983 Venture that I am trying to rebuild and the rear brake caliper was missing. The question is will any other year or model brake caliper work or do I have to find a 1983 model caliper? Thanks!
