Hey gearheads,
Hope everybody got through the storms unscathed. Quite a spectacle for sure.
What Ive got is an 02 E440, number 12 in case that matters. with a ported 432, upgraded crank, fuel and oil lines, direct intake,
new everything with about 4 hrs on it since build. 3 of those hrs in one ride.
After finally getting her starting and running really good, with alot of help from Boomer,
it would stall suddenly but would start right back up and get me back to the house.
That is, until last time.
Rolling along about 55 or so, it died, it would crank but not start.
I think Ive touched on all the simple stuff and then started swapping stuff out to eliminate component failure.
Coil, injectors, regulator, ecm, tried several different maps, recalibrated throttle several times, and tried many different
offset and flow rate settings. still not starting.
Ive got great spark, plenty of fuel, and compression seems fine.
Im beginning to think Ive got a bad wire or ground Im missing somewhere.
When I first started working on this bike, it had been sitting in the shop since 08 when it was built. previous owner never got it to run
more than a few minutes at a time. Dave did a few things to it, new throttle body, regulator, injectors, new ecm, just to mention a few.
It was really hard to start when hot but ran really good. I richened it up alot, flow rate was in the 2350-2400 range with offset of about 1
finally dialed it in at 1975 and .88. seemed like it was perfect.
I was running a map called trinium for ported, open airbox and It was sweet all the way through from bottom to top.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Ive got too much invested in this ***** to give up now. lol
Ive got an 03 X440 that was built at the same time, by the same guy, with all of the same upgrades and it is Bulletproof.
If I cant make the E dependable, Im gonna put all the d/s stuff on the X and set fire to whats left. lol
Thanks guys
