For syncing throttle bodies on my BMW's I used to use a twinmax, is this best way to sync the Guzzi or is there another method that works better? Thanks
That was due to a FatDuc (O2 sensor signal modifier). There are only three ways to fool an ECU:1 - FatDuc - modifies O2 sensor input - closed loop only. Dangerous because we don't know everything we need to know about how the ECU uses the signal.2- Ambient air intake modifier - tells the ECU it's colder outside. Most the cheap versions are just a resister. But resisters tend to vary resistance based on temperature so they are not linear and you may over fuel the bike as well. The BoosterPlug propaganda suggests that they have compensated for this and come with another air temp sensor to provide a reference reading. Supposed to be linear. BoosterPlug link.3 - Fool the ECU into thinking that you are at a lower altitude. No one has attempted this and I understand why.As already stated the best solution is a new map. The fix provided also takes the narrow band O2 sensor out of the loop. Yes, it is Guzzidiag.
I'm just going to leave it for now and enjoy riding! ;-T
I made a DIY version using a diode to reduce the voltage going to the O2 sensor. Dirt cheap when done yourself, and the results were fine at low-mid rpm.Here's a link to my efforts: https://www.flickr.com/photos/sign216/sets/72157629649665070/click on each picture for the text below
I used to use a Twinmax to balance my throttle bodies on my BMW's and could really get those motors to run smooth. Is this the best tool to use for the Guzzi or is there something better? Thanks,
