Has anyone tried/ compared this to other... Not sure if they are really worth the extra $$$.....:ummm:

I'm getting readings from 8.66k ohms to 9.25k ohms for the plug wires. Any one know what's acceptable? I've read aprox. 1000 ohms per foot and these are about a foot. Original 7 year old wires I believe and I have some new ones on order. Thanks,Mike

Hi guys need to know where to get a set of GOOD plug wires?? I bought a set from someone on here that were supposed to be a good that were brand new and they are terrible. The warmer the bike gets the worse they leak. You can hear and see them arching out above the plug they are arching out on...

I have been having a pretty good lag when wot from 2 or 3, like when getting on it to catch someone on the street, and has been running pretty shitty in the 3-4k range at cruise. I did the shotgun fix the other day but didn't help much. Today I took off the plug and all of them looked fine but...

Hi guys, What did I do today with my V-max....? well I was intrested to have a 12V (sigaretlighter) plug installed for (no not lighting my :smoke000: while driving :rofl_200:) But for my TomTom navy divice.... I still had a TomTom laying, doing nothing so why not placing it on the...

Inspected the spark plugs today. Left front and back were dry, light brown, looked like they were burning good. Right back was slightly wet, a little darker brown. Right front was less wet than the back right, and little lighter color, but not the clean burn of the left side. I have been told...

Ok, newbie question here. Background first: I removed the battery on the VMX I bought a month ago to get a good look at it and charge it. In the process I "loosened" the one of the plug wires as it goes into the coil - passenger side - ha ha! I am getting random backfiring and a discolored...

Hi guys Does anyone know the lower oil plug specs? The one by the oil level check window by the right footpeg, used sometimes as oil pressure pick up port... I need to know thread specs an depth of thread. If someone can let me know i'd be very appreciative. Thanks in advance.

Hi, When my max is cold, the front right cylinder backfires a couple of times when I drive off with the choke opened just a little. With the choke open full the popping is gone, so you would expect the cylinder runs lean. But here`s the funny bit: The spark plugs of the other three cylinders...

I am new to owning a vmax. I have a stage 7 jet kit and I'm wondering what everyone is running for their spark plugs. I have the stock NGK plugs and they are fouled up. Iam figuring I need a hotter spark plugs but have no idea which ones to you. If you can help me out that would be great

What is the proper spark plug gap for a 1988 max with nology plug wires?

I am checking to see if there would be enough interest from members to make it feasible for me to buy about 10 (or more) of the Ignitech TCIP4 V80 TCI ignition modules. These units would be a 30 minute or less job to install & be riding with. I would get these units from Ignitech, pre-load a...

I was hoping one of the carb gurus out there would read my plugs and let me know what you think. Heading on a trip tomorrow and just wanted to get an idea.I have suspected rich as if I warm up with the choke too long sometimes I seem to foul out a plug for a little while. What do you think:

FYI summit racing 8mm plug wires for a v8 work fine to replace the stock wires. About 40 bucks for 8 wires. So good deal and cheaper then anything out there. All you have to do is cut them to length of the old ones. A little di-electric grease is needed to get the 8mm wires to go into the...

I've always used NGK Iridium & love their performance & long life, I also used Bosch Silber (silver center electrode) & found them comparable to Iridiums in performance at a fraction of the cost, they are the same heat range as stock NGK spark plugs. Part # = XR4CS Bosch Silber

Hi folks, I'm new to the forum and am wondering if anyone can help me out. I decided to attempt to do some maintenance by myself on my '92 V-max last weekend (I know, could be a dangerous proposition!) Before I read the manual (I know, could be dangerous...) I saw the plastic "what looked...

There's a guy on ebay selling these wires with strobe caps . No resisters in the caps do you need the resisters in the cap or is the guy full of crap, have you used these wires , any problems

Was wondering if you guys recommend the stock plugs and wires, or is there something better? Do stock wires come with everything "boot caps" ect??? Also is it would putting an aftermarket ignition "dyna" in?
