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...

I have a 1982 gs750 and installed new dynatek coils and ignition and was getting a variety of gap call outs when searching the forum so I decided to write dynatek. So I can contribute something instead of just taking I thought I would post the response.

Comments: I have a 1982 Suzuki gs750e that I installed your dyna S
ignition in as well as a pair of 3ohm coils. I am getting varied
instruction on some motorcycle forums on what I should gap my plugs at.
I have been told .26, .28 .31. Figured I would come to the experts. What
should I set the plug gaps to for this set up? Alex

Hello Alex.
While the engine would run well at many different plug gaps, I would suggest
.032" for the best performance.
Thank you,

Truth of the matter is it doesn't matter. Suzuki spec is .024 to .028. .032 is fine as well since those coils have a little more power than the stockers.
 
I'm putting Accels on my GS and the instructions that came with them says to set the gap at .035". Just FWIW.
 
I had a local motorcycle mechanic with more knowledge than me suggest .035 gap, claiming more flame propogation, for more complete burn.
I went back several years later, he said I never said that, eventhough I'd be running on that suggestion for awhile.

Now, I'm just buying the NGK plugs and installing them. I do have Dyna-S and Green Dyna 3ohm coils and all seems well aside from all my other engine issues.
