1985 H-D FLHT won't start.
I'm helping a buddy get try to get this thing going. He has no manual and won't buy one. I tried referencing the one for my 1997 Road King but when it come to troubleshooting there is to big a difference. Here's the story though.
He bought the bike and rode it for 2 days then put it in his building. The next weekend it wouldn't start. This was last year. He put a new coil on it cause it had no spark and still doesn't. I started looking at it a couple days ago and I checked power input to the coil with switch on and found none. It is after that that the my manual becomes useless. I checked for rubbed/ broken wires and the circuit breaker. As far as I can see there are no fuses. No issues found. That is where I stopped though sense my book shows different plugs and wire colors than this bike. If someone has the Service Manual for this bike and can tell my what prongs and go/ no go ohm readings I should get are I would appreciate it.
