Barry, the rotor in the left ('driver side') half of the engine case
supplies power to the recifire. In my '82 750, the rectifier is located on
the back of the toolbox, which is under the left airpod. Sometimes wiring
gets pinched between the two. Check the wiring coming from the upper left
rear of the engine case. You'll have to trace it, as I'm not sure where
your components are...but if there's a short or broken whire (it happens),
then there's no power juicing the coils.

Subject: power to the coil
Okay,
I've ruled out the spark plug wires and caps. I'm not getting power from the
coils.
I know they were working before I replaced this engine, so now, can anyone
tell me,
where do the coils get thier power? Is there a relay I'm missing somewhere
that
blocks power from getting to the coils? The wiring all looks good and the
connections are clean. HELP! PLEASE!!
