You're using a Clymer manual perchance?
I'm not sure which coil is which but one runs the front cylinders and the other the rear.
big knocking noise first start GL1100
hello,
we tried to start our gl1100 yesterday after changing the motor. there has been a big knocking noise so we stopped immediately,
we tried starting without lighting the coils, and the motor makes a nice sound with no more knocking noise.
- we changed the GL1100 motor for a 1983 GL1100 aspencade
- we changed the drive belts and it seemed to turn nicely
- the coils are plug this way: 1 and 3 on the right top and bottom; and 2 and 4 on left top and bottom
do you have any idea of what it can be ?
thank you for your help

thanks ken,
yes that's true, the 1 and 2 come from one point, and 3 and 4 from the other.
we're trying to redo the belts but it's complicated cause the marks on the pulleys are different from the old motor...
