From another thread: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/201 64/386342.html?1218656723 "Posted on Thursday, August 07, 2008 - 08:03 pm: When I was having issues with my Blast, it was the TPS that was out of range. One of the things though that I checked (of many) during that horrible exploration was the timing. What I discovered was that setting the timing with the motor off really doesn't get an accurate result. If you don't want to buy a timing light (Harbor freight sells one for $10 or $11), then I have found that the best way to set the timing it to run the engine at idle then turn the module counterclockwise until the revs go up. If you go too far, the engine will start to sputter out, but if you get it just right the rev's will be at max when you've got it just right. And of course, turning clockwise from this position will lower the revs. To determine if it's a timing problem, just try moving that module slowly back and forth and see if the noise changes or stops. If it's always there at any setting, I don't suspect it's a timing issue. " |
