Whenever there is arcing at a coil, you should  also be suspicious of
high resistance downstream from the coil, causing the coil to
leak/arc....like very big plug gaps perhaps, or sometimes shot plug
wires...although you would expect those to leak, not resist.
Hi All,
When my 91 Westy 2.1 ran like Doo Doo,
It wasn't until I replaced the S/P Wires,
that it was back to running like a top !
I was going to check the resistance in them
and then didn't, because there was absolutely
No arcing at all.
And that's what we've gotten used to checking for.
(How do I spell ASSUME?:)
Worth the $30 or $40 bucks.
Have a great Saturday!
