I see you have yours a little different having the wire tabs separate but still on same threaded bolt , my wire tabs are together, you think it will matter...?

Actually got new coils on the way OEM Honda coils but I saved old condensers and points cause they were original Japanese made and probably better quality im sure

This is the way it was brought to me and was running, I have spark advancer removed so please ignore that put I put double fibrous washer so when terminal ends are tight they won't bite down into ground, can anyone please tell me if this is correct. 1975 Honda CB 750k , removed advancer cause a...

Some times or actually a lot of times , your 50 year old part works better than the new China junk most definitely

I definitely saved the old ones but yes I know exactly what you mean, I experienced that many times

I have the spark advancer gone in these pics , but does this look like the proper way to wire these condensers in ..? I doubled up the fibrous washer so that when tightened down really tight it couldn't dig into ground in anyway on the bracket. Does this look correct anyone please...? This is...

The piece must have been chewed up long long time ago , didn't find any pieces , this is a customer's bike , I had it running great after valve adjustment, carb cleaning, oil change and the guy had resistor NGK plugs in it , I changed to the recommended non resistor NGKs and it ran perfectly no...

Very very light spark and very intermittent, timing light will not even pick it up

Had to retard my timing so much that I had ran out of slot on the timing plate just to get it hitting on the F mark statically timing it , I knew this couldn't be right so I pulled the plate off and found the advancer had a broken ear that goes into the advancing cam , this is just another issue...

Yes my timing light will not even pick up the firing from the right side coil , tested my light on a vehicle just to make sure it was working properly and it is , I get flashing from left coil but no flashing on right side , points gap are new and gaped properly and also new condensers

How often is it that an ignition coil bench test on the primary side and secondary side fine as far as resistance in ohms but actually turn out to be bad after all , how likely does that happen..? 1975 Honda cb750 has new points and condensers but when hooking up a timing light the left side...

Do these need servicing or only replacing , never seen these older type , only use to the ones that have fins and solid housing

Yes I went ahead and ordered new points and condensers just to be safe

Is it a grounding terminal block ..?

What is this exactly anyone ..? Not familiar with it.
