1977 GL 1000K2 COILS
Bryanj:
My book wasnt where i thought it was, i have abother at a mates house so can get the info sat
Laverdaroo:
Sorry, quick-high jack, sorry!
Bryan, did you get a chance to measure up that suzuki mudguard mate? I'm not pestering as I guess you're dead buy leading up to Crimbo etc? More of a reminder if you get a sec. Thanks again mate, you're a good un.
Sorry, carry on,................Coil info coming on saturday etc..... ;) :)
Bryanj:
Roo, not had time yet, going norf to visit fambly mate.
The only book i have access to at moment is GL 1200 which is electronic and that says 2.3 to 3.0 ohms, i will continue looking for the 1000 book
K2-K6:
If it helps the overview for OP, electronic equipped makes use of low ohm rating because they can control the switched on time, dwell, on a fixed time basis and irrespective of engine rpm.
Points based systems have dwell in angles of crank but with it changing/shortening as revs rise on time basis. Too low ohm rating leaves the coils on too long during low rpm if they are paired.
Low ohms rating on points may overheat coils in drawing too much from supply at low rpm. High ohms on electronic may give high rpm compromise as it remains not fully saturated when supply is terminated to fire plugs.
Bryanj:
Big problem with the 1000 was they had 9v ballasted coils to get better spark for starting, like 70' fords and vauxhalls
