    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Battery short

What can cause a battery to have a shortage? Tried charging the battery overnight and the charger showed that the battery has a short, took it to autozone so I could get the core price off of the new battery and had them test the old one just to see if they could get a reading aswell, they said the battery was 11.5volts and had 0 charge. Im perplexed because it has been spinning the motor just fine since I've been doing all this electrical work trying to get all the sparkplugs to work.

Gonna do a fusebox test putting in one fuse in the box at a time seeing if any blow and then will give me a better insight to where I should be looking.


Had had the R/R and stator replaced and plenty connections have been cleaned, all the grounds are stabile. Where to look?
 
Get the new battery installed and go back to ignition problem.....this ignitor wouldn?t be happy with 11.5 volts. Hopefully you have tested your new r/r and stator setup

Got a new battery and still having issues with the ignitor but I made a comment on my post about no spark on negative sides, got a huge helping hand today and it's either the negative wire that goes to the ignitor or the ignitor itself, gonna get a test light to solve that.

And I haven't tested them yet but I definitely will be after the help i got today, makes the electrical stuff heaps easier to mess with.
