Would like to know if they can be dismantled/cleaned to any real effect.
Pete gave me a new one which is perfect, but I don't want to pitch this one out. It's sticking a bit as a result of my over rich mixture gumming it up.

I want to know that too
the plastic stepper motor and the plunger looks like this, it looks it can be detached from the aluminium housing by a twist

I replaced mine with a new plastic one a couple of years back and it looks like this one is sticky now - GRRRRRRR
I disassembled the old original one and it came out as a pile of scrap. However I stupidly threw the body so I don't know whether Phangs spot would fit
However, I've just ordered a DIY-Adjustable-Speed-Stepper-Motor-Driver-Controller-with-Remote-Control-2-phase

And the plan with a suitable plug is to stroke the damn thing back and forth off the bike and with copious amounts of carb cleaner and compressed air see if I can get it un-sticky
My theory is that its not the motor itself that's the issue but the gear drive so if I can stroke it a bunch of times and clean/lube it I might get a solution
If it works you can either post me your old one and I'll give it a coat of stroking and cleaning and post it back or I'll post you the PATENTED CARC ICV STROKER and you can send it back when you're finished

Removed by a twist you say?
Ok, thankyou guys, nothing to lose by having a look.

I hope it is as straight forward as this

Plus the subtle application of pressure applied thus :wink:

Looks like they come apart but the stepper that came out seems to have a different end to the one Phang found

Technically almost everything is serviceable , just depends on how stubborn you are , and if spending a buck to save 50 cents is a good idea .

Thank you Tris.
A good read. The first 90,000 were spent on a too rich mixture which I'm informed will possibly have contributed to some contamination but Pete gave me a clean one.
I've put 30,000 on it so with the new map and Roperising, it should be as clean as a birds bum !

BTW, that's an old thread you unearthed..
What are you doing back there ?

I'm a slow reader :wink:
Seriously though I have a sticky ICV and am trying to avoid spending £350 to replace it .... again
So I'm reading everything I can find to see if a clever individual has cracked the issue. Not found it yet :sad:
Still my stepper controller finally arrived yesterday so maybe I'll be able to make some progress.
If this doesn't help me fix it I'll take the £350 (plus what I'll save NOT fixing the clocks) and Microsquirt the bike
If I didnt like the bike as much as I do I would be wasting my time and money on it.
Love is such a fickle thing :kiss:

I thought a sticky ICV would be best remedied by a Doctor.. :embarrassed:

It is normally, but with the stepper controller I should now be able to move it in and ............ perhaps I should stop there :azn:

Hmmm....I disconnected mine about 8 or 9 years ago, so I'm guessing it is in like new condition.

OK BC - why did you disconnect it?
Was it messing about?
What did you do with the pipe work?
Is it still plugged into the loom?
I ask as its one of the options I'm evaluating to save the 350 GBP mine will cost to replace if i can't fix this one
Cheers

I got tired of the weird engine racing when it got hot, so I just plugged the lines and kept the wiring in place. Yeah, when it gets cold outside I have to warm up the engine and while that can be a pain when it's really cold it hasn't been much of a problem after a couple minutes of riding. There maybe another reason to keep the thing but it hasn't been a problem for my 07 Norge and I certainly wouldn't spend that kind of money without trying a disconnect, as it isn't that difficult to do.

Thanks for that info. :thumb:
