    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.

I need to buy new coils for my 80 450S I have been repairing them as much as possible but it has come time to just buy new ones. I was planning on going with Dyna coils as most people in the discussions have sais they are good one to buy. Do I need to measure the resistance of the ones I have to be able to get the right replacements? If so how do I go about doing that I have a mulitmeter? Just a little digital Harbor Freight thing it has Ohms on it I mostly use it for voltage and checking continuity. Never measured resistance before.
 
you just need to know whether you have a points, or electronic, ignition....5 ohm coils for points, 3 ohm for electronic...I believe you have an electronic ignition
 
Order 3 ohm coils. They will work perfectly on either electronic ignitions or points ignitions. You want NON CDI coils.
