    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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 two plug boots as Im not getting any resitance out of them, 1980 gs750L, My question is can you buy any type of boot at autozone and have it work?
 
Not sure about the autozone boots, but you can get the NGK ones from Z1enterprises for 3 or 4 bucks apiece.
 
I replaced mine on my GS1100G. I read through the forums and there were some good articles on it. If memory serves me each one is supposed to have a resistor in the range of 3-5K ohms. Like GSstiny said, NGK makes some. I had to get two different styles, the exact #s are somewhere in the forum history but the NGK ones I used were all 5K ohms. Keep your rubber boot fittings, I used mine instead of the NGK ones. That is weird you didn't get any resistance out of them. Do you mean you got infinite resistance or zero? I checked all four of mine and two were around 10K ohms, one was at 100K ohms and the other was okay at 3K ohms....

Any bike shop should have these, but auto shops won't.
