Slight modification to ASH's Ignition coil fix

<< < (3/9) > >>

Green1:
I never checked the Ohms but they have been in there for some time now.
The used points that were in the bike when I bought it about 5 years ago still haven't needed to be touched.

AshimotoK0:
One thing to watch with modified method is that in some coils I have don,  on Honda 4's,  (e.g.a pair Trigger had done), the HT cable 'snakes' within the potting. I will give it a whirl sometimes though  and give it as an option in the write-up...obviously accredited to you Steve  :)

UK Pete:
I have lost track of the amount of coils the ht lead has come loose in they seen to be able to twist inside the hole easily if the mod is done it is worth glueing  the cable so it don't twist
I had my engine running in my test bench using a set of coils whete I could pull the lead out of the actual cool housing it still ran ok though

My original 45+ year old CB750 HT leads had gone rock hard, and I was getting all kinds of poppage and bangage that nothing would fix. Thinking they were sealed for life and unreplaceable I bit the bullet and bought a new set of OEM coils with leads from Mr Silver, at over £200 I have bought good, running bikes for less.

It cured all the missing and plug fouling, but I wish I'd seen these fixes first!  :-[

SteveW:
Just replaced the other lead on this coil (the shorter lump).

Just a note that this cable seems to be set into the potting a bit deeper than the other so the hole will have to be made slightly deeper.

Again, just like the first cable, once I had cut through the cable it pulled out easily.

Got the cable and new plug caps from these guys, cable was about £1 and plug caps about £2.50, delivered in a couple of days.
