951 is now OK!!

Thanks guys!!!


Turns out the 2 sensors behind the manifold were the culprits, I unplugged them and reaseted them and presto it turns on when its warm or cold!.

What are those sensors anyways?

They are the speed and reference sensor. One picks up the signal from the flywheel teeth; the other off a allen screw, set to 5mm in height on the flywheel.

I knew it the moment I saw your thread.

I had to put Ty-Raps on both sensor connectors for the 83, they will come loose again if you don't. The male side of the plug gets cracked and makes bad contact. Glad you got it fixed.
