    2-3 no spark

    OK so after a period of degeneration my bike stopped firing the 2-3 plugs.
    Checked pri resistence and its 4.1 for both coils
    Its 25k ohms on the secondary.
    Manual says 30-60 is the acceptable range.

    Signal generator resistance specs are Ok at 350 ohms each

    SO all ressitance readings are the same for all components but no spark from 2-3. I suspect ignitor so I try another known good working ignitor same symptoms.

    So I grasp at straws and ask is it possble to connect the primary inputs from 1-4 to coil 2-3 in an effort to see if it the ignitor?

    Its dark and damp and the mosquitos tried to drag me off

    Oh and the voltage to the coil primaries is high 10-11 v both sides

    NGK caps? Seems the 5k NGKs are usually 5k less than the stock caps. That would be +10k if you're using NGK.

    Not just possible but recommended. See if the no spark condition follows the plug or the coil. Try a continuity test of the coil ground wires from the ignitor.

    What's your battery voltage? High 10V range could be a 2V drop.

      I am using brand new 5k NGK caps.
      Battery is fully charged.

      I will have to face this in the morning damn I hate mosquitos.

        25k is fine then.

          This damn DD3-2 thing is improperly listed on dynateks site it seems.
          I would buy one today to get rid of this old crap.

          Spyug where is you fix?
