  • Update: • Yamaha R6 Ignition Coi...
    2003 Yamaha YZF R6
    I have a 03 R6 which I believe to have two bad coils in. When I ride around in low RPM's, the bike sounds absolutely terrible. Almost like a v-twin or a dirtbike or something, but definitely not like it should. I have to feather the throttle around to try to get the other cylinders to fire. I'm not 100% sure that the coils are the problem, so I uploaded to see what you guys think. I will, however, be putting newer coils in very soon, so I'll make a follow up video on the results. Thanks for watching!

    if failing, you will have inconsistent experiences, and they may not keep up with the higher rpms and seem fine with the lows. i rode on bad coils/harness for 2 years and didnt know. the extra power was greatly appreciated. humidity tends to make the coils with holes misfire leaving white needle point burn marks.

    Mines doing the same. But was down for a good year or so fixing other stuff.
    Coils ohms were good, new ngks, new fuel pump, cleaned out fuel system(rail, injectors, hoses), going to check ground wiring and wires. 🤦🏻‍♂️ cylinder 2 and 4 aren’t igniting. Swapped plugs...

      Dont worry too much mate . It might be coils after all . My spark plugs were all fine apart from cylinder 1 plug which was black / sooty . Swapped aroumd coils 1 and 2 .. now the black sooty plug is cylinder 2 plug . So the problem shifted with the coil position . New coils time 👍ive a 2002 r6 but had blown coils on cars .

  • @mrdirtdart2239
    @mrdirtdart2239 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Your idle is WAY too low....should be between 1,300-1,500 rpm and your temperature is WAY too high! I have an '04 R6, it never gets over 102-104 degrees when idling....when riding, it is between 80-95 degrees. I replaced the ignition coils and plugs in mine....didn't really need it done but they were original and 15 years old, HUGE difference in performance!! Try "Engine Ice" as a coolant, probably the best on the market to keep engine temp down. Flush engine out with, "distilled water" first though. After doing that, if the idle is still low...check your idle adjustment screw on the right side, located where your knee would rest....turn it clockwise to increase the idle when engine is warm.

  • @evanasche8882
    @evanasche8882 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Same problem, it jumps on idle and when I get on the throttle it stutters and bogs big time (and sounds like an R3) but the more it warms up the better it gets which tells me it's not the coil and tells me it's the plugs in my bike. I cleaned the plugs and found one was actually loose lol. After I did that it ran great after a quick warm up but now it's doing it again so I'm gonna change the plugs and see if that works. Hopefully I don't have to change the coils. Don't feel like dumping 80-100 bucks in new coils lol

      +MPR3B I'm not the original owner. It's a 2007 r6. I had a hunch the coils were going bad but the water test didn't seem be a clear answer. It idled rough when hot which some say is the coils and yesterday I was on my way home and it just started sounding like crap and had no power down in low rpms. Sounds just like yours did. So I'm hoping to get them out later today and test them. Where did you end up getting coils? I know they recommend oem parts for stuff like this but obviously Yamaha coils arnt cutting it...

    • @mpr3b685
      @mpr3b685  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Mitch Denes good news for me, bad news for you...when i opened up my bike, it still had the recalled Denso coils in it. Which made it 100% clear to me that it was in fact the coils. There were fried, clear as day. I'm assuming that anything after 2003 and even some years before, have the mitsubishi's already in. So I don't know why they would go bad, although it is very possible. I got my coils on ebay for $90 versus $300 for new ones. Price is obviously a huge thing for me. I'm a broke college kid so I was willing to take that chance on used ones even though people told me to buy new. If price is no option for you, go get new ones from the dealer and have them put them in. If price is, try scooping up some on ebay and take the chance. You can always resell them. Is your battery good? Air filter okay? Spark plugs good? If so, it's gotta be the coils. But my situation wasn't the exact same as yours, so I can't give a fool proof answer. If you find everything i just said to be okay, then think electrical and try the voltage regulator or rectifier or whatever it's called, but I highly doubt that's it. Check everything else first. Keep me updated!

      +MPR3B I tore into it tonight. I had spark plugs and changed them. They all looked pretty good. Not sure of the last time they were changed but fresh ones are in. All of my coils tested about the same with the primary being 1.7. With a max tolerance of 1.6. So it might be a combination. All the symptoms point to coils and the bike runs rough once warmed up. People have claimed they won't fall out of spec until hot. Who knows. I'm also on a budget but found some decent ones on eBay I'm going to try for just under $100. Come with a warranty. Everything looks fine thus far. So hoping to just get new coils and fix it all. I plan on posting a video of it here in the upcoming days of your interested. Thanks for all the info and ideas man.!

Most guys will stand behind their stuff that they sell, so if they don't work, I'm sure the seller will try helping you out. I think there's a pretty good chance that it's just your coils. I will definitely check out your vid. And for the info, no problem. I bought the bike with little to no knowledge of bikes and engines. Ended up dumping it and fucking a lot of things up. Didn't have the money to pay someone to fix it, so I was forced to learn a lot real quick. Still continuing to learn. But yea, get that vid up, and get them new coils in.
