I do now yes. Im still getting backfire when revving up but that may be unburnt fuel from all the cranking checking for spark. But it revs great now, I was surprised at how fast it revved next to vmax. Can't wait to fervor on the road tomorrow, I pulled this beaute out of a yard its been sitting in for 9 yrs. -

Haha, your welcome. Not sure if that is the switch that is bad or what! -

Well probably something I should have checked, but the kickstand switch must have went out. It didn't work before and I could start in gear.. but now it seams as if it may have grounded out or something. I clipped the black/white wire from the tci harness and fired right up. Man how stupid can I be!!! -

Bkuhr just got your tci and o still have no spark. Problems elsewhere I assume! This is nuts. Im not sire what the problem is but battery was completely dead to so I jumped it doing this, could something have fried that's not letting it get power to tci or something from battery??? -

Would u guys know if a vmax tci would work in the venture for suree, like 85-90 vmax on my 83 venture. I think one would be easier to come by, plus I have vboost im waiting to put on and the curves might be closer to vmax than venture. Also I think some of the connector tabs separated from the boards when I was tugging on it, may have destroyed my venture board. -

Oj well the red w/ white striped wire had 12v sitting and cranking to. So I have power ro the tci. Any other thoughts. I don't have anyone near me to try theirs! -

I will try that! Should i worry about resistors that are swelled up and a little rusty looking?? Cause it did work before -

Well it does get hot from just cranking, ill try that. I have some resistors that are swelled up maybe from water? Could that be a problem?? -

Out if curiousity can I use my multimeter on the board its self for tests, thus would eliminate alot of my struggling. -

I didn't bake it, I just cleaned out holes and solders in new ones. Yes I do know they go one way, that was the first thing I double checked. It just seems weird that I have no spark. I havee soldered before, so I know I didn't goof there. -

Ok kill switch works, not a single spark from amy of 4 coils. -

Yacht switch I meant kill switch making tach jump** I apologize this was all from my phone. Yes i replaced all diodes like I said was it 6 or 8, don't remember. And at the r/w wire for kill switch, I ground probe and use that r/w wire as hot side for probe and I should be able to flip switch and get 12v on and off correct? -

camarojunkie85 replied to mechanic1's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Well I soldered in all 8 or 6 diodes however many there were. But im not sure of my kill switch is bad or what now but I have no spark at all. If I push the kill switch it makes the yacht switch jump a bit was that normal? But do you have any other tests I can try. I wasn't sure if maybe I lost ground from pulling coils also or what!. But now im furious lol. -
