Default Ignitor Problem

Ok my tach would jump like crazy by itself... and ive done alot of readin, and people say most likely the ignitor and to change it, well when i woke up today my gsr did'nt start, it just cranks, and there is no spark bein sent to plugs, i checked wit a screw driver in the plug wire and nuttin, my question is if the ignitor goes bad will i have that problem???

it could be the dizzy, since its an internal coil id bet you its somewhere in there.

are you getting fuel as its cranking? if you get fuel when the key is turned on, but not when your cranking, and your getting no spark, you may have a bad crank sensor.

the only way i know of to test a crank sensor is with an oscilliscope, and i doubt youve got one of those.

and **** you think its cold there? try riding in conneticuit. at least you dont HAVE to put your bike down for the winter.

i'll put $100 on it being the coil, not the distributor...while the coil and ignition module are internal to the distributor, both can be removed, tested, and replaced

if you want the coil tested, you can either do it yourself, or go to your local autozone. either way, all that is required is an ohm meter and the tolerable range for the primary and seconday of the coil.

basically, if the resistance is within those 2 tolerable ranges, the coil is fine. if it goes outside, either lower or above, it is junk. since the coil is based on resistance, this should be pretty obvious.

i wouldnt trust a distributor from ebay. the coil can be removed anyway, or you could get an aftermarket one... msd makes an external coil.
