Moderator drewpy Posted February 16, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted February 16, 2014 I've got a spare 12R-A0 SH233 your a bit far though, prob cheaper to get it in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feliks Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Well maybe, let me know if you can't find one! They seem to be all over the place though...so you can probably find one close to you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted March 8, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted March 8, 2014 i went to do a bit more on the FZ today.... ....and I just thought sack it. and changed the engine over so the new engine is in so I just need to put new needles in the carbs (£52 EEK!) and fire her up (hopefully) the new reg/rec arrived from China too, happy days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted March 8, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted March 8, 2014 Question; the original coils I have are 2.43 to 2.97 ohms and suit the original ECU the '91 xj engines have 1.8 - 2.2 ohms, anyone think it will fry the ECU? ( it took me 6 months to find one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dt502001 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Measure the resistance of your coils first. If they are high then swap coils,, Low ohms coils work better and less back pressure /feed on the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted March 9, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted March 9, 2014 I've found a set on ebay with the same primary resistance (fazer ones) but they have a higher secondary, prob due to the higher compression engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt502001 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Well just thinking about the way a coil works,primary builds and then collapes onto the secondary,in my mind I can't see why the secondary would matter,The voltage has been cut to the coil during that split second and the cap is charging anyway. So as long as the primary is not resisting the charge from the system then I would think all would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calum122 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Nice. No photos though Picture says a thousand words and words give me a headache. Much like this project I bet. How come you didn't decide to just rebuild your original engine? Was there any particular reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come you didn't decide to just rebuild your original engine? Was there any particular reason? pictures would be boring bits of wire and engine to look at, but if your really keen to see them. The engine isn't scrap, I have another cyl head to put on and deciding whether to breathe on it a bit. everything I've done can be undone just as easily.

Moderator drewpy Posted March 15, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted March 15, 2014 OK,here are some photos 1/ Engine 2/ electrics 1 3/ Electrics 2 fitted an R1 reg/rec onto a finned alloy plate I "acquired" in a previous job, should keep it cool and managed to fit the diversion coils in too with a little bit of jiggery pokery. Awaiting new HT leads and will need to extend the reg/rec wires as the old style had a mini loom on them ;( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator drewpy Posted March 16, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted March 16, 2014 Looking good Drew, the motor looks sweet. yes, it runs great (at the vendors) awaiting some more wiring products and need to set my floats on the carbs,then it should run again!

dt502001 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Well I for one dont care what it looks like now,I know you will make it sweet in time. I want to hear what you think of the extra 10 hp,so heres hoping you get the carbs and elcs sorted soon so you can report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
