Hi All,
1985 K100RS
Bike starts ok hot or cold but idle very lumpy when cold.
Opening throttle from cold, engine stutters and usually stops about 1200 rpm, coaxing temp up, can drive bike when warm. Acceleration is good but VERY slight misfire can be felt occasionally on steady cruise condition.
Have done the following.
Replaced Hall Effect Triggers Replaced injector relay
Replaced fuel pump Replaced fuel pressure regulator (twice)
Replaced fuel filter Replaced crankcase vent hose
Replaced water temp sensor Replaced filters & pintle caps on injectors
Checked injectors on 9 volt Checked fuel pressure - approx 35psi at rail - pump blows off about 70psi
Connected HT strobe & LED on injectors & run engine to try and see if either misses some pulses - all look ok.
One final "pointer"
If when throttling up expecting engine to cut, I momentarily pinch the fuel hose leading to fuel regulator the engine picks up perfectly???
I believe ignition is ok
Could it be EFI sending wrong pulse duration to injectors??
I am at wits end - any suggestions gratefully accepted.
