Buell Starts, Doesn't Make it to Idle
First time caller, long time listener, love the show...searched and didn't seem anything similar. Most problems are won't start at all or idles roughly.
I have an '04 XB12 that hasn't run in 3-4 years. Looking for a good Buell shop where I can ship it and have them wrench until it's fixed. I've tried a couple of H-D mechanics who didn't know Buell--they were about as useful as a football bat. Alternately, if one of you has an "aha" moment, I'll take it!
What it does:
- Primes
- Injector checks click as they should
- Coil checks appear good
- Starts after ~2 seconds on the starter, one throttle blip, and then dies in ~1 second
Things that have been done:
- Replaced intake seals, mechanic said they looked fine
- Replaced plugs
- Changed all fluids (gas is good)
- TPS reset
- Checked AFV, was high but that's from the last time it hit closed loop (years ago), and before switching out the seals. Reset AFV to 100.
I love wrenching, but have minimal time to do it (family & job > wrenching). I do have ECMspy and am comfortable with the app.
