On my 90 GW I am dealing with a no-start that developed after an intermittant no start. I have another post on here about the Mallory Hyfire install - I am waiting on a harness adapter to put that in (didn't feel like hacking up the rig's harness).
In the mean time I am wanting to check the pick up coil. I bought an analyzer to checks resistance (ohms) although it is not digital I think I have figured it out. My question is the specifics of checking the resistance. I am following the Haynes manual instructions and am lacking some info. I have tried checking the wires that plug in across from the orange and purple wires at the harness (can't remember the colors) although the Haynes manual says to check across the purple and orange at the harness (there is not an orange and purple at the harness just the ones that correspond to those on the ICM). Anyway I am not getting any resistance.
Do I do this with key turned on, key off, while trying to start? It doesn't address this in the Haynes manual.
sorry for long post but I want to try to make it clear as I can.
