about to enter the dark side

for a BMW K100RS that has a slight case of hesitation
so far all it does is respond to a unlit torch, i need to make a pipe to put in the muffler
once i get the beemer sorted out, if i do, i'am going to see what it does on the XJ with dual mufflers

 

That's a bloody nice multimeter - fluke?

 

yea, Fluke 87 not mine but mine to use as long as i keep my job
i coulden't wait, i just put it in the muffler and tried it and all the FI tricks work and it proves the plug read is right, way lean
got to make a pipe for it though

 

my cousin has a fluke scope meter- talk about expensive..

 

Question on that O2 sensor, if I may. Is that a heated version, and if so, do you just hook the appropriate wires straight to the battery, or...?

 

this
is the one i used, 4 wire, just hooked it up to a 12v battery
draws about .8 amps
so far my old (94) ranger varies by hundredths
the09 sportage varies by thousandths
and the bmw is all over the place and not repeatable, it needs work
i'am going to try the maxim later but it hasn't been run this year yet so
i don't know what to expect

 

P - check out the flying brick forum (K100 sub-forum linked here): http://www.k-bikes.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=56

Saw some interesting discussions about the K-specific FI stuff...

 

In other words, yes.

 

success! the maf unit needed cleaned, runs like new again
the Maxim looks like it idles about 13.7/1 or 750/800 mv so it's rich but
that's better than lean
what i need to see is where a color tuned bike comes in
