well the tci was it....i installed the new coils and the tci wayne gave me, and bam, it fired right up. i tested it by putting the old tci in, and it wouldnt fire. So that tells me the old tci box went bad. I was going to open it up and see if i could see any burned spots. However, even after all of the things i checked and changed, i still have a WOT problem. The bike is smooth and powerful, as long as I dont twist my wrist all the way back. What could be causing this?
BTW, thanks to all of you for your information and support, and thank you to wayne for the TCI box.79 XS11 special "Loki" - homemade 4-2 exhaust, pod filters, rebuilt forks with progressive springs, tkat fork brace, progressive shocks, rebuilt all brakes and MC's, rebuilt carbs with #142.5 main and #42.5 pilot, a custom front and chin fairing, and a handmade set of saddlebags....

I still think you might have an issue with the pickup coils. That may just be what took out the TCI.

Have you got or have access to a timing light? Check and make sure your vacuum and centifugal advance units are working properly.
If one or the other isn't working you could be losing up to 36º of total advance.Greg
