I own a 1980 CB750 that has had some charging system problems. The magneto/rotor is measuring 1-2 OHMs. Should I replace it?
I am also looking at replacing the stock coils and possibly some wiring as well. Should I use 3 OHM or 5 OHM coils? What is the difference between 3 OHM and 5 OHM? I remember reading somewhere that the 3 OHM coils have a tendency to burn out (or something to that effect) and that running 5 OHM coils is safer for the electrical system.
Apologies in advance if these questions have been answered before.
