FZR4 starting problem

Post by Dubite FZR4 » Thu May 05, 2011 1:21 pm

My bike died on me today, Theres no spark when im turning it over but when i flick the run/Off switch to the position off it sparks. Im gonna test it all with a meter tomoro as cant get my hands on one today, but in the meantime thought id ask you guys if you think its just the coils or maybe the ignitor pack?? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Also if its the coil or the ignitor pack anyone know the best place for me to order one. I need it delivered asap. As now im back on push bike to work every day and its gonna kill me lol.
Thanks in advance. Billy.

Also theres no spark on the far left and the far right plugs. not got time today to whip the airbox off and check the others. Surely both coils wouldnt stop working at the same time would they? Or are these 2 plugs joined to the same coil? I cant see without the box removed how they go. Is it the 2 left plugs to the left coil and vice versa???

Cheers. Billy.

There are 2 coils, 1 connects to No1 and 4 pistons (the one you have no spark on) and the other to No2 and 3. So it sounds like that coil.
Check the wires coming into the coil aren't damaged and are connected. Swap the wires from the good coil to the bad one and check for a spark on No1 or 4 just to confirm it's dead.
