Travels of a coil... and other tales

[Mom]

Oh and I have a certain something to pass onto you too John.... From Mom...

Top effort mate! Nothing like a bit of an adventure, out and about. Glad to have been able to help you out. This KB community really is something special for sure. Thanks too for remembering that certain something for John. Let me know how it goes...LOL

pfft you mean you're in my mirrors!

Thank you for not wasting my little shot at you!

All suspense about Mom's surprise! Cheers John.

I'm extremely impressed with Kerry's work (Triple Fourensics) and couldn't recommend him enough.
He's plugged his computer in, methodically checked all the wiring, found Ignition coil loom rubbing on crankcases & kinked, fixed idle trim from 43.7 (rich down to 11.7 (leaner) Its had issues with the surging idle for forever, not sure why noone else has been able to fix it. As well as fixing some other bits and pieces....
And now for the test ride... and its not just any round the block test ride, but a 700km test ride!!! He actually took it all the way from Opunake to Rotorua and back (return trip in heavy rain) with his sensors monitoring system etc attached.
All with pictures of progress, and being informed via txt and email whats going on every step of the way.

And he can also put a proper fuel mapping in, "I have also extensively studied the running data, and have built a fuel map that would cure your low speed/rpm problems and give some more mid-range. Can also adjust the thermo fan & rev limiter."

It'll be a new machine when I get it back!

good to know others reccomendations .. Dogs swears by his work & will not take the trumpy anywhere else .. be good to have everything sorted & yes it will feel like a brand spanking new machine
