ran across a problem.....

[Joel W.]

ok i mis understood a little., i figured if it slipped once maybe it slip again? but i see your point and wasnt trying to argue or nuthin hahhaha..

 

[IJ.]

LOL yep it will slip again sooner or later Joel!

Worst case scenario is it comes off and takes out everything in front of it!
(Not as easy with out motors having 3x multiV belts)

But if it's slipped before you need to recheck True 0 everytime an adjustment is made as you need to have a repeatable start point or you're just wasting time trying to tune out unknowns.

 

[Joel W.]

cool, i learn something here every day...thanks IJ

 

[IJ.]

Very welcome Joel.

It always comes back to the basics if they're wrong everything you do from there is wrong.

 

[gixxer750]

so the rubber probably slipped, not the key...

 

[IJ.]

Yep the inner and outer hub are vulcanised together and over time the bond can break.

I bought a brand new balancer as I didn't trust any of the old ones I have here for the new motor.

 

[gixxer750]

I'm going to fix this right now and take it for a test drive!

 

[IJ.]

Good move Gixx!

Sorry if I come across as a bit of a smartarse/knowitall or anything but you really have to have a known baseline before you can troubleshoot then tune.

This is why I said the dyno would be a waste of time as anything that was adjusted the other day will be wrong.

Please be careful and don't hammer it now thinking it's tuned and the AF's are correct.

 

[gixxer750]

I unhooked the SAFC's wires that goes to the AFM and bridged the AFM connector back together using the banana plugs that it came with.

I'm probably running rich again, but it feels so good to have the car go sideways in first or second under boost

 

[gixxer750]

so yeah, it feels fixed

 

[IJ.]

You're welcome ........

no really no need to say thanks.....

 

[Joel W.]

thanks hell,,, send him cash. hehe

I feel like we all should just sending you cash just for the continiung education at (IIT) IJ's Institiute of Technology... ... hahhaha you rock....thats how i roll...:icon_bigg

 

[gixxer750]

lol, the smiley was short for thanks, but yes, thank you IJ

 

[IJ.]

I've found in life a little "thank you" goes a long way

 

[gixxer750]

yes it does

 

[IJ.]

So spill!

How is it running?
(ignoring the fact it's not tuned)

 

[gixxer750]

pretty good, although it still may be 1-2 degrees off, because it is still lacking a little power, but not much. It feels down about 20 hp from what it used to be...

 

[IJ.]

Now the adjustment on the dowel pegs should let you dial em in Gixx.

 

[gixxer750]

that is with an adjustment made on the dowel pin....

 

[MDCmotorsports]

Does phone tech support get paid too?

LOL jk!

Glad to hear she's running better.

Go back to the dyno and lets see what she's running now.

BTW, what about my t-78?
