Hi folk's! This bloody machine(mule) is trying my patience or should I say the hiding gremlin!
Anyway I took the beast on it's maiden voyage yestereday, which should've been to another galaxy, since it doesn't like this one! Immediately after start-up, ECU light display came on, I decided to take the plunge...and go for it. Rode to town, approx 8km's no problem's. Fuelled up, then left town, approx 500m's the beast died briefly.(tenth's of a second) I decided to carry on, then approx 7km's later the rev counter needle headed to the zero zone....for around 1 second. So due to the distance I had to cover I changed my mind and turned around only for it to die totally! After summoning the coast guard(bike rescue) and returning to port. I retried the beast and the bloody gremlin decided to go into hiding again....bloody mule started straight up.
Pissed, I walked away....
Anyway I'm going to replace the cam angle sensor, but....it's obsolete, no longer available according to a local HD dealer, and no generic sensor available...
So would be greatful for infomation, of a replacement sensor, or do I have to engineer another style, type of sensor to the orginal mounting plate, or re-engineer the whole unit, crankshaft pick-up cup and sensor, wiring, etc?
Forgot to add...is there any information concerning the exhaust actuator, unit. Is there a replacement unit available, or replacement unit be it generic?
Thank's folk's, Gav
