Insanity setting in!!!

Update!!!

Tested my last coil and according to specs I found here, it tested bad.

So I got a replacement.
Bolted it in, checked the spark.... Still no spark.

So I poured over all the connections and therminals, squeezing pinching and wiggling to make sure they were tight.
Low and behold the bike turned!!!
So without touching anything else I went to put the plug back in... And the threads were boogered.
Almost went crazy, but took some patience and got it back in.

And now..........
Won't fire again.

I'm thiiiiiiisss close to losing it.

Any suggestions that don't end with me in a straight jacket?

Cam (throttle) position sensor (TPS). While reading resistance across the solenoid move the throttle grip slowly from fully closed to fully open. Report back with your values. Same thing happened to mine and I found that it was the TPS after replacing the coil as well.

@squeadlies
I will get on that ASAP !

Any luck?

Well kind of....

I'm horrible with electronics.. So I broke down and had a mobile repair guy come out. (Great rates)
Tested everything, and said its not electrical.
Thinks its bad gas and debris from sitting so long clogged up the throttle bodie and hoses.

Sound feasible?

Cam (throttle) position sensor (TPS)

the cam position sensor and throttle position sensor are not the same thing. The cam position sensor is attached to the cam shaft and controls spark timing.

Be that as it may ......

Any suggestions?

my bad, i was thinking back to reading the schematic a couple years ago and i thought it called the put the tps as a cam sensor as well. thanks for clarifying.

Has been remedied!!

I refuse to say what it was because it was so simple...


But almost back together and ill shoot pics soon!
