THE STORY
So I burned my stock coils. maybe not such a bad thing, they were old and decrepit. I thought I fixed the cause.
Put new emgos on and do new points and condensers as well. I ride the getocycle around for awhile...a very short while...
One coil blows and I get another one.
While I ride with an old good one on it runs fine. I get the new one on and promptly blow my other new one.
So I put the old one on again with the newly sent emgo and it screams again.
I thought the condensers had been grounding out against the points spring when I put the cover on because it seemed a little tight. I pulled it off and went for about a 40 mi ride last night and all seemed well!
today I head out for some ciggs and .5 miles away it dies and wont start. I dont have it at my house now but the carbs were getting gas. and it cut out on two cylinders then totally died and wouldnt start.
The Questions
Can shorting between the condensors and points cause a coil to burn up?
If this was fixed what else would cause this problem??
Keep it together man!
