Plug Wire hook up?

Sorry if this question is dumb but this is my first build and I dont know which order to hook my plug wires up. I got her running and it seems to run good but I just wanted to make sure I had the plug wires hooked up correctly. I have it set up with the left coil going to cylinders 1 and 3, and the right coil going to 2 and 4. Sitting on the bike I am counting 1234 from left to right. Is this correct or not? Thank you. its an 82 kz750e

I believe the coils will power 1 & 4 and 2 & 3.

Read this as it will be helpful, the Kz550's,Kz650's and Kz 750's are wired differently from the Z1's,Kz900's,Kz1000's and Kz1100's:

Ignition Coil Primary And Secondary Wiring

Ignition coils on the 80’s Kz1000,Kz1100’s and Gpz1100’s are wired the same, that is as you sit on the bike, the LEFT ignition coil primary(small wires) are two wires, RED and BLACK. The secondary (or sparkplug wires) go to #1 and #4 sparkplugs.

The cylinders are numbered left to right as you sit on the seat; #1,#2,#3, and #4.

For the RIGHT ignition coil, the primary wires, again are two wires, RED and GREEN, with the secondary going to #2 and #3.

The RED wire gets it’s voltage from the run/stop switch on the right handlebar switch pod.

The BLACK and GREEN wires connect to the IC Igniter(if the bike has the Kawasaki supplied electronic ignition) it actually gives the coils their grounds to fire the sparkplugs.

Primary(small wires) side of the coils will read between 1.8 to 3.0 ohms.

Secondary(sparkplug wire ports)side of the coil will read between 10.4K to 15.6K ohms.

To stress the ignition coils, take a hair dryer, heat the coils and see if the ohm readings change from cold to hot . If they do, it’s time to buy new coils.

Keep in mind, the wiring is reversed for the 550’s 650‘s and 750‘s, that is the RIGHT coil primary will be two wires, RED and BLACK with the secondary(sparkplugs) going to #1 and #4.

The LEFT coils primary wiring would be again two wires, RED and GREEN, with the secondary(sparkplugs) going to #2 and #3.

These engines have what is known as a “Wasted Spark” that is, a sparkplug will fire during an exhaust stroke. It does no damage and many other motorcycle engines have this design.

that means that the 1 and 4 have the same stroke and 2 and 3 have the same stroke? that makes sense cause I get back firing out of the carbs on start up sometimes

i am brain dead and can not remember some bike stuff no matter how many times i learn it...so a tip i use is to tape blue painters tape on the coils and mark 1-4 left,or 2-3 right side ect...then i do the same with little pieces on the plug cap ends...then i put a small piece on the frame rails...see my pic...seems to be idiot proof as i can put em back months later....

Good Fortune!

Thanks guys. I think I got it. I just had them hooked up wrong. I had the left coil going to 1&3 and the right coil going to 2&4. It still started up and ran but I guess it was wrong. thanks
