Hi everyone My back cylinder has gone quiet. ![]() There's plenty of compression and spark, so am thinking there may be some kind of timing (crank angle sensor) or fuel issue. My workshop manual talks about a diagnostic tool; blinking light variety, plugs in at the engine management unit, to check the condition of sensors. Does anyone know where I can source one, or how to make one up? Goofgling hasn't helped so far. I'm guessing the plug/cable is an industry standard type. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks Mike |

Can't help you with the diagnostic but I think if the crank or timing sensor has failed it will affect the spark and injection to both cylinders. |

There is a schematic on how to build one on here too. It works too! Takes about $10 of parts and about 20 minutes to solder up. Cheers. Nick. |

chances are this tool is not going to help much, time to start check those connectors and grounds concentrate on the ignition circuits and key switch ![]() ![]() |

Thanks for the responses guys. Haven't looked at the bike for a week or two now, although I did quickly run a compression test on the rear cylinder; 125psi. So that's doesn't seem likely to be the problem. As I mentioned in my op, there is a big fat spark at the rear cylinder, so I'm discounting CDI/ignition circuit issues at the moment and am starting think about fuel. Bike is just sittng in the corner of the garage atm, with a sheet over it. |
