Dumbass Question.

[Tom-Hamburg]

Hi,

the TuneECU site is back online.

Sorry for any inconvenience but the page was last night transferred to another server.
Now everything should work again as usual.

BR, Tom

Was going to go back in to TuneECU and write a thank you and a donation to Alain for what he's done but I seem to be having a problem getting back into his site.
Keeps coming up with a message saying.

Apache Server at TuneECU_Start Port 80

Hope I haven't broken any site rules or something. I never found a registery key anywhere and just assumed it did a self register or something cos it all worked just fine up till an hour ago. Might have to look into that.

Anyway. A huge thanks to all who made this work so well. Did I say I'm impressed
If not, I am.

Running a Fairly Rich Tune but if sitting on about 110 to 120ish will get about 240klm will before the light comes on, recntly while towing a mates little Alli lite trailer (approx 180kg's the bike didn't know it was there) while coming back from Phillip Island to Barinsdale, along fairly flat country and sitting on 100 - 110klm/h (blue lights hiding everywhere) the light didn't come on till 268klm (outstanding), on average around town 220 to 230 seems to be limit, eventually I will get it on a dyno and get it fine tuned which may improve it, not stressed though.... bought the the bike for power = Fun not fuel economy.

Funny you know, when I sit on about 240KPH i only get about 120K's.....

Hey cobba, a group of mates and I are heading up to VIcNSW boarder through Vic high country and looping around back to Melb. If you or any other Rocket fellas want to link up let me know. Will be up there around Sat 26 Nov

Welcome to the site. I'm sure you will find an answer to any
question you might have. I'm glad for you that you chose a
"Cardinal" red. There is another guy on here with a "Clarinet"
( Clariet) red, and his is VERY slow. Won't pass a turtle.
Oh, just pulling Hans chain. This is a great site with a lot
of good hearted people. Lots of talent. We also have belt
buckles, head wraps, rings and other jewelery. But thats
after you get her running right. Maybe start with a new
"Jet Black Paint Job"
Good luck and welcome aboard Captain.

Hmmm......wonder who that could be ? I know of a guy with a "Black" "Touring". ALL other Rockets look red to him because all he see's is tail lights

OK.
Followed the instructions and cleaned the Crank angle sensor.
Started it up and ran for a minute to scavange the excess oil from the crank, gave it a wipe with a clean rag with a bit of gun wash on it, fitted it all back up then went onto the 12 minute tune.

This time I started from cold (or pretty close to it).
Took a minute of holding the throttle just cracked till it was warm enough to idle by itself, but only just.
Left it be an went about other things while it did it's thing. Was about 15 minutes before the Thermo kicked in and I waited till it had ran long enough to shut off again.
Left it run for about another minute then turned the key off.

2 hours later. Still won't start and idle from cold. Just wants to idle at 500 RPM and stall all the time.

Bloody lead better turn up soon.

How many miles are on this bike ? Mine had about 28 thousand miles when it started idling really slow. Seems there is some linkage between the idle stop screw and the primary throttle plates. After a while it wears and allows the plates to go all the way closed. I had to go in more than three turns before the plates started to open. They need to be open just a little. Keep track of how many turns you go, that way you can always put it back. You can download a service manual for free on this site just can't remember where. Someone will tell you.

Guess I should have finished reading the whole thread before I opened my yap ! Glad to hear you got it sorted. Now it must be punished !

BR, Tom

Thanks Tom.
I did manage to get back into the site yesterday arvo so had the feeling it was a technical issue.
Glad to here you have got it sorted out.

Congrats to you and Alian on what you have built. I'm sure a lot of ppeople have made good use of it already.

Got a laugh out of your last comment. You're not the only one that does that kinda stuff.

Bikes only got 20,000Ks on it (12,000 miles) so hasn't done Jack****e work yet, but as you said, it's all sorted and running great now.

Thanks to all.

Gday Ponters. Calander looks clear for that weekend so far. Will keep in touch.
If you're coming in via Omeo then I'll most likely ride up to there or even Bruthen to meet you. Pretty boring going from here back to Melbourne but the otherside is a great bit of road.

What bikes are your mates riding.
I find Triumphs tend to be racist with other breeds and need to be out in front of them all the time.
The side effects of that are a deterioration in quality of licence, which I can't afford right now either.

Let me know your plans when you've got em all worked out.

Cheers. Cobba.
