GPz ignitor box was created by baldy110
I already did a search for this with no results so here goes. Does anyone know if I can use the 82 GPz750 ignitor box on a 81 Gpz1100 engine. I know the part numbers are different but they are identical down to the color of wiring and plug. I need one for my GPz1100 and I have one for a GPz750 in my shop. Thanks

Find "Loudhvx's" replacement using off the shelf GM electronic modules. It's many times cheaper and easy to build. This can only be used on bikes with the mechanical ignition advancer.

Checked the pick up (pulsing) coils? They can become intermitant, making you think the IC Igniter has gone bad.
Ohm Checking Pickup(Pulsing) Coils
The pickup coils on the Kawasaki’s with the factory supplied electronic ignition can sometimes fail or become intermittent due to heat and vibration.
1.Trace back from where the pick up coils are mounted,(under a right side CD sized cover) locate and disconnect a small 4 pin connector. Using a multi-meter set on OHMS and range of 2K, check between the BLUE and BLACK wires(#1 and #4 sparkplug wires) for between 360- 540 OHMS.
2.For #2 and #3 sparkplugs the wire colors will be YELLOW and RED, again 360-540 OHMS. The 550’s,650’s & 750’s may be backwards to the Z1’s,Kz900’s,Kz1000’s & Kz1100’s.
3.If the pickup coils are suspect of failing due to heat, they can be stressed using a hair dryer without the need of the engine running.
4.A replacement set of pickup coils might be obtained from a dealer who serviced the police Kawasaki’s.
5. If replacement pickup coils are not available, your next choice would be to order a Dyna “S” electronic ignition system from www.z1enterprises.com It replaces the IC igniter with a smaller module located where the mechanical ignition advancer was mounted.
6. Checking with Kawasaki.com website has determined that the Pick up(pulsing) coils are available . The pulsing coil # is 59026-1133 and replaces the older # 1002, 1012 which were used from the MKII motors until the 2005 P24.
7.Check the small 4 pin connector that the pickup coils connect to for corrosion/loose pins too.

The ignitor from the 750 will fit, the connectors may be different, but they are interchangeable.

If it's for a customer than just use the replacement. If it's for you, than build one from the GM modules. The Lou-HEI Module is better than the OE box and it will only cost you about $50-$60 to build.
