1981 Suzuki GS 750 L - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
I have a 1981 suzuki
I appreciate that this is only a similar problem but my wife had a similar problem with her old vaxhaul corsa, we got the big guy across the road to help because big guys are usually good with this sort of thing lol, ok he had a great car lots of tools and was always inside his cars engine. He came across half hour later with jump leads and I yelled stop because not just sparks but the cable covers melted and I found it to be a little off. after that we had nothing, no ignition, no lights just nothing and a car mechanic came looked in the engine but couldnt see anything we explained about the battery and on testing it he found that the battery itself first drained as suspected and then we broke it by overloading it somehow in the end a new battery sorted the problem which cost £50 but in the long run we thought it a good price. the battery lasted us another 4 years until the car had had enough and went in for scrap. hope you can take something from that and you can sort your bike :)

The petcock has a diaphragm and needs a vacuum to allow fuel to flow, It is a safety fuel shut off, if the engine stops NO VACUUM, NO FUEL to carbs, there is usually a vacuum take off on the inlet manifold pipe between the carb and the engine. Hope that helps

Theres a lot of stuff relating to these bikes (i have an 82 GS%%)l, and have found GSresource website a fantastic place to learn, and get advice. Your particular problem may be more electrical than fuel/air, a fair few common faults with these. A, the 3 phase stator has an unessesary lead going up into the loom for the headlight - it doesn`t need it, it just feeds back down to the r/r. unplug the lead from the stat - find where the lead comes from light back to r/r - unplug it, plug the stat lead directly to the one you unplugged feeding into the r/r. That will save ur stat burning out and enliven some power back to coils. B, look for an ignition relay mod for the gs, it will give you direct feed from live to coil (its a long, long thread) its called `coil relay modifications for the gs` i can`t remember where i got it so i can`t do a link at mo - sorry. C, when you`ve done this check timing with a gun - ur advancer may need attention or be fouled up. If you got cash buy a dyna s for it (and coils if ur really flush). Do all these and you`ll probably be better off than you`ve ever known the bike to be. I also run splitfire plugs in mine, they make a lot of difference too. I hope this helps m8.
I'm restoring a 1981 Suzuki gs850 , I'm pretty
Personally I would locate an illustrated parts manual for your motor and determine if they are interchangeable. Also, check with a Suzuki dealership for interchangeability of the coils. I am a Harley man personally and I would not even think of putting coils on my motor that are not made for it. Bikes are funny creatures and often very unforgiving. Buy OEM parts made for your particiular model motor and you will be very happy. Don't risk it even if there is a chance they are interchangeable. Are you willing to burn up your ignition system for it?

run a 10 amp fuse, if it blows start looking for a short. do yourself a favor and rewire the fuse box to an up-dated box, glass fuses will only get harder to find.
Good luck

I have an 81 gs 750 i went to fire it up a few
Hello David, the "pop" hopefully was the main inline power supply fuse. If you were jumping starting with a car battery, it could be more serious if the fuse did not blow fast enough. Follow the positive cable off the battery. You should find an inline fuse, somewhere in the heavy gauge wire. Usually 25-30amp. If you have a 12vdc test light, it will help to locate. I hope this information is helpful.
