  10. Hi Keith,

  14. giving painting a miss as it's too humid so...............................

    Checked everything over to check for a spark! no spark :mad:
    Did all usual checks, changed coils to the spares i have, no spark!
    Wiring diagram out...... Checked circuits from ecu, voltage at low T on coils but no discharge.
    Pick up coil has No resistance, so checked in st4 manual for ohms and ..... use a MATHESIS to check... Bastids!

    Anyone know off their head what resistance reading is on the single type pickup ?
    Thanks in advance.
     
  15. Oh to be that weight. If I can get to 100 kg and stay there it will keep the quack off my back
     

  16. Faulty pickup no resistance :rolleyes:
    Found that a fiat tipo 1.8ie is the same sensor and so is the map sensor and the temp sensor all MUCH cheaper than ducati.
     
  17. get to halfords now we want to hear it run!
    Steve:wink:


    ps dont forget to cut out your oil veiwing hole before painting
