I checked the chokes out . yes the coils seem to be getting warm
I talked to Dyna they are going to check them out for me i just have to mail them in those gent's are great over there

Mine was similar to this after i did a silly thing with the wiring and split one of the Green coils completely in half and it killed one of the Dyna pickups too. The coil was obvious but the telling thing with the pickup was white goo pouring out the back. I put a borrowed Dyna plate and pickups on...

This sounds exact same prob I had , did you say you had Dyna s if so go back to points and try it :D Yep i have the Dyna -s pickups but they check out fine thank God :lol: I did find my stock coils in a box and the old point's set up in the basement :oops: the end caps are missing i did find two of...

The only other thing i can think of is the points them-self are wrong has happened to me before

To be honest I don't think it will be the coils. Please explain this better: "It will idle but you go to give it gas just drops dead" does that mean it won't rev or cuts out and you have to restart? If the latter does it restart quickly? when i first start it up it runs good and will rev ...

My secondary tests are in ( k)"S not ohm's with no wires on just the coils and with there spec sheet it should be 13.5k to 14.5k Mine start out cold at 14.7k and going to hot at 15.7k And my Primary resistance starting out at 3.4 ohms cold and going to 3.7ohms hot and there spec sheet say's it ...

I was just wondering did you check your top dead center with a dial indicator gauge against your tdc marks the (F) mark is the real tdc i have found a lot of these marks are off a bit . When i was running point's i always used the dwell meter to set them and when that was not around a matchbook cove...

Ok Paul and Piggy here is what i got with no wire's just the coils Coil 1&4 Ohms 3.5 ohm's cold 3.6 ohm's hot secondary test 14.7 cold when heated 15.6 Coils 3&2 3.5 ohm's cold 3.7 ohm's hot Secondary test 14.6 cold when hot 15.7 I know her blow drier don't get that hot so i am thinking this...

Ok i will check it that away i was doing it just like a car coil test like it said in my book

Yes Paul i am pulling it from the neg coil side where the trigger is to the spark plug high tension leads both sides and get nothing :?? the coil dates read 3/80 I took the old lady's hair drier and heated the coils up with it and pulled readings on them warm still no readings on the high tension le...

http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp105/BlackFox12_photo/Picture59079357.jpg Ok this is my primary test i used two multimeter s on the coils and both of them where at 3.5 on my good one and 3.8 on the cheap one http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp105/BlackFox12_photo/Picture59079360.jpg Now my se...

Fox, seems strange for both coils to fail at same time and only when you give it gas?...If it is the coils breaking down when they get hot jury rig up a temp gas supply and run the bike till it gets hot,run a household cooling fan onto the coils and see if it cuts out then! Other thought when you s...

Yes i am going to have to test them out but is there a way i can get them hot to check them out other than running it and having to strip it down real fast :?: Because i want to test them cold and hot just to be on the safe side i know they are old coils i think they where bought when Dyna first sta...

Ok i got my new harness in with the new switches and the new rectifier combo unit bikes starts great rev's great . But as soon as it starts to get warm it will not rev' It will idle but you go to give it gas just drops dead . I know the timing is dead spot on and the carbs are dead spot on and the c...

I had this to happen on my bike when i picked up a set of carbs off a friend the mixture screws where over tightened and it messed up the seats of them and one of the tips was broke off in the carb body
