Hey there Guys and Gals, First off, a HUGE thanks to all who responded! Well, ended up I had a short. I checked and cleaned all the connections I could follow to the coil and battery and also checked the connections to the ignition switch as many of you had recommended. Finally, got juice to the coil! Whooopeeeeeee! : ) Thanked the gods at this point as I don't havta replace that ignition switch. Still wasn't gettin spark from the coil wire though :( After much checking (and I mean MUCH) ended up the points were fried at some point (Maybe when my buddy tried jumpin her to move her outta the drive). I filed the points and reset the timing ta see if I could get her started to no avail. Was getting spark at the plugs now though : ) I'm gonna order that tune-up package from Ron and order some new wires too I think. I'll be in the process of moving back to OKC this month so won't get to work on Eve till Sep. Bummer, as I was hoping to have her running b4 my return. Big thanks to all again and gotta luv the list! Later man, Don (SkyCruizer) 80 Custom Camper 2.0 air-cooled FI (Eve) 82 Westy 2.0 air-cooled FI (Daisy)
