Great news!Power Commanders and airbox mods-I hate those on Guzzis.
I took off late this morning, heading for Scranton then 84. East.Unfortunately there is a distinct hitch in the throttle at the speed I need to maintain.I would love to go 80 all the time but I need my license. The plan is to make it home tonight. More later as I stop for fuel.Best,Rob
And then it dawned on me, there is a PC 3 connected to this motorcycle, I unplugged it plugged the stock ECU in and long story short rode to Chambersburg with nary a hitch.

I think it is time for me to send in my 2015 support to WildGuzzi.
These machines are getting old, and electrical connections are getting corroded. I've found that Wayne's magic Caig DeOxit on every electrical connector works wonders. Probably will fix that PC, too. I've still gotta think that pulling the fuel petcock was the main culprit. Maybe water?

Guessing for late models ? Missed that , pretty nice offer . Dusty
Rob,http://hamlincycles.comIf you're still in Southbury, Jim Hamlin's Guzzi shop is 17 miles from you. Worth a short ride for him to check it out. He's got a great rep.Cam
Side question: what form of Caig DeOxit works best? Spray? Pin applicator?Best of luck Rob!Shaun
Dunno.. I've never used anything except the spray. It's fixed a ton of electrical stuff for me, though..
{snippity}So now what... Disconnect the fuel pump and test it...? Is there a way to actually test the pump...?{snip}Thanks,Rob
I had a very similar issue with my jackal a while back. Same kinds of symptoms. I changed the fuel filter, cleaned the fuel tap, drained the gas, checked the tps , had a diagnostic run on the fuel injection and ignition, on and on. Turns out it was the spark plug caps. Put on a new set and all was well. Not saying that is the answer to your problem, but these kind of challenges can drive a person to distraction. Hope you get it fixed soon.
Pumps are rated by flow and pressure and the ability to 'lift' fuel. In the hold-my-beer school if we can figure out pressure, flow and lift are implied.So I'd put a pressure gauge on it and see if it maintains ~42# when the problem is occurring.
Does the Caig brand contain chemicals different than the CRC Brand QD Electronic Cleaner that I have here...? Isohexane, Difluoroethane, Ethanol, n-Hexane...
