You know cowpuc you got me thinking about one thing but then i read the BIG RED letters in a post I did recall i wasnt getting ground to my tci unit on pick up coil side and sure enuff i wasnt but... read the big red letters that told me that I wouldnt have ground if the plug was not plugged in... Dang it Man you got my hopes up i was gonna get to ride today........ but only if I

I think Condor needs a search engine for parts in his garage or storage area to remind him where he put that board bender and maybe even a board stretcher:bang head::bang head: BUT I DO AGREE IT IS A PITA!!!!

I do find that useful but maybe place it near the search bar.... just a thought

The main function of a diode is to block the current in one direction, and allow current to flow in the other direction. Current flowing through the diode is called forward current. There are several types of diodes: Rectifier diodes -- these are the most common, with its function described above. Detector diodes -- these are more sensitive than normal rectifier diodes. They are used in radios and televisions to convert radio signals to audio or television signals. Zener diodes -- These diodes are the opposites of the normal diodes, because they are designed to conduct current in the backwards (reverse) direction BUT only at a very precise voltage. Zener diodes are used to regulate voltages (to behave sort-of like a battery). Capacitance diodes act as tunable capacitors and are also used in radios and TVs to allow electronic automatic tuning. Tunnel diodes are used in oscillator circuits HOLY CRAP ALL THOSE BANGS TO THE HEAD DIDNT HURT MY LONG TERM MEMORY LOL

I'm getting -0.09 on coil connections with just the key on but if I remember right I got 12 volts going to TCI it's just not coming out that way I just measured resistance coming from plug it all measured in specs and switched the coils last night to see if I could get spark from no. 4 which I did get spark. It just wouldn't make sense 4 the coils to just die I may have confused some by asking the questions. Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk

O and by the way i used to work at Coin Ops and we put together boards and test them and sometimes they would have bad resisters so i took good resistor home and bad resister and took them apart... the wire went from what i remember all the way thru that stoney stuff and after tearing those resisters up i never did figure out what was wrong with the bad resister
-
Yeh I have taken these caps apart and cleaned them up and i knew not to mess with resister basically my question was if there was supposed to be very low voltage in the high tension wires with the key on i would say there was posibley 2 volts give or take. Ive already done all the other testing by reversing coils etc to see if there was spark and i know all 4 coil packs are good.. and all 4 high tensions are good just replaced spark plugs so she does try to turn over but the only thing i dont have anymore is the low voltage going to my high tension wires. I just never would have done that if i hadn't got bit while the bike was just in the on position. I just dont have papers with a certification and all the bikes i have ever owned were on the points system and the old way of testing spark well im too hold to hear hold this medal thing while i pull the chord lol... so I may be confused of what your saying because there again i see primary and secondary and if i have understood everything correctly I think what your telling me yes I should see low voltage in the high tension wire.... and the secondary is from the pick up coils and the one that actually sends the spark... correct me if im wrong.. I have problem when i try to explain things and sometimes sound a bit well cocky not try to but i am pretty much learning with the bikes because i have always had point systems and this electronic stuff on the bike is crazy i never did like it in the cars... but have learned to live with and learned to work on them and it seems it has made them easier to work on for the most part......

Alright I have a question for any of you who has ever been Bit while working on spark plugs wires while the key was in the on position... but noone hit the starter button. The question here is when Marie was up and running and I had to trim Back wire to get rid of some corrosion I was listening to my radio and had flipped the key too far anyways while i was using wire cutters to cut thru the spark plug wire i felt a little tingle.. So that gave me an idea to use a test light to check the rest of the wires i found another dead wire that way out of 4 i had 2 dead ones... all i did was simply used my test light put it in the cap and hooked other side to ground and had a dim light in the tester after i trimmed all the wires i then hit the starter to check them all and the light would go from dim to brighter when i would crank the bike. well it no longer does this and i can only check for a spark by sticking screwdriver in the cap and ground against body and i see weak sparks and one coil aint getting power at all which has basically left me to believe the TCI unit is bad.. However my question is just about that initial thing i discovered with low voltage going thru plug wires. so i have seen talk about Initial charge here and there and that pick up coils send the signal to tci to send fire charge to cylinders, so basically if i havent confused any of you at this time cause i am just curious if that is something i was supposed to see happen? the low voltage coming thru the wires when key was just in On Positions anyways thanks for all the help this far... by the way Marie was built in 83':think:

as a matter of fact i have thats what is in my carbs the float needle i believe is the wrong size for ours and that other piece i couldnt use either but i bought it for like 20 bux for all 4 carbs and mainly what i needed was all the gaskets... but if your gonna pull the carbs you might as well use everything you can and clean them out real good its what i did i didnt need the enrichers valve gasket but replaced it anyways

whats your parts stash look like?

My neighbor had one and it felt good it just sat low but he couldn't figure out y it would only fire with hot battery I tried to explain to him he needed to replace the battery but he not the brightest crayon he let it go back cause of that single problem his battery would test at 11,2 volts but at 12.5 it would fire fine Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk -
But the thing is my wires aren't copper at least don't appear copper they are silver greyish color Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk
