woe is my ignition

[northern venture]

'87, sat 4 a long time, 14k miles

 

Had issue with fuel in carbs that a $600 injection into the dealers retirment fund did not cure!

Flushed w/carb cleaner/blew everything out and then washed with engine cleaner

 

Now no spark at plugs. Backtracked all steps cleaning and drying e/thing, still no joy!

 

Juice at coils though.

 

AND NOT RIDING ON HOLIDAY WEEKEND!

 

HELP!

You can back pin D out of the white connector, this removes all of the kill switches to the ignition box and you will probably get your spark. Just remember this bypasses the sidestand and tipover safety switches.

Went to another dealer and after having an ignition box($1000. quoted price!)used to find problem, service tech found a broken wire/connection. Another $600. donation and i was on my way!
