Power valve issue
-
@calum do you have a link for how to remove power valve at all?
-
@thechompster No, just take the two powervalve end caps off. The offside powervalve housing has a bolt to keep the two pieces together, make sure you don't lose the locating dowels as they're prone to falling out. You'll want to lubricate it with WD40.
-
@calum ok thanks for the help. With give it a go.
-
Took the exhaust off. A bit dirty in there but rotates easy enough. Goes through the cleaning process nice and easy so all I can do now is change the servo and hope it sorts it.
-
A friend had a faulty servo, sometime during a ride where the PV was open, it would leave it open. Other times just seem erratic. I believe the gears in the servo was toast.
-
@jens-eskildsen ok thanks mate. Very helpfull
Will try another servo then and see what happens. -
@thechompster just out of interest, what spark plug are you running??
-
@mitch_350z iridium spark plug
-
@thechompster does it have the resistor in it the 'r' in the spark plug type as this can cause issues with the operation of the valve
-
@mitch_350z the one below. Br9eix.
-
Me too, br9eix
-
@thechompster my mistake, I meant without the 'r' lol if it hasn't got the resistor in it the valve finds a mind of its own. You can hear the exhaust note change as you ride
-
@mitch_350z I see. Where is the resister?
-
@thechompster I believe it’s built into the core of the plug
