I've been referred to the link and am looking for generic coil to fit, but where do I find one ?I would recommend the GM coil mod, if possible
Thanks. I've also been referred to the GM coil mod and read the thread. How do I get hold of one of those and which do you recommend ? Basically if its all the same I will go for the one that's cheapest to ship here. Currently I'm looking at ZAR 15 to US$ 1. The shipping is often more than the part.David Silver Spares has it and more https://www.davidsilverspares.com/CB400N-SUPER-DREAM-1979/part_28546/
Thanks. Will check it out.https://www.ebay.ca/itm/NORS-1990s-...N-COIL-DR39-/132279681628?hash=item1ecc7bc25c
Here's an example of the type of coil used for the GM mod, you can call your local auto parts store (I assume some American cars are exported there, find one in the list that you've seen around) and see if they have something that matches.
You will also need a matching spark plug wire, I found them at a junkyard because they want you to buy 4 or 6 at once.
not sure about the link, the connectors are wrong but you'll be soldering them to the connector anyway
The tank was cleaned and sealed. But yes, seems I'm going to be best off by stripping the carbs and clean them again.You might want to look inside the tank for rust too. It is possible that the carbs were cleaned but ended up dirty again.
However it does seem that every time someone gets carbs "cleaned professionally" it turns out they weren't cleaned at all.
