grezman Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) Hi all. The ignition coils on my 1980 GS1000 S are shot. What would you recommend as replacements ? It's a bog standard bike, so not sure I need Dynas ? Anyone used the £30 Eblag jobs with any success ? Thanks in advance. Edited May 26, 2022 by grezman Quote
Muddy Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) I have a mate who did exactly this on a GS850 shaftie. The bike had been sitting for a long time and was sold to him as "not running with no spark". After checking, he had to replace coils, plug leads, plug caps and igniter. He bough the evilbay chinese coils, leads caps set plus a genuine igniter. After fitting all this, the spark fired straight up and the bike ran fine. He is in the middle of a rebuild on the bike so has been unable to check the operation of the motor under load or reliability yet. Edited May 26, 2022 by Muddy Quote
grezman Posted May 26, 2022 Author Posted May 26, 2022 Thanks for the reply. Just remembered that mine does have a Newtronic ignition system, if that makes any difference ? Quote
