Before the swarm of Asian Tiger Mosquitos chased me in the house, I got several more important bits done, leaving plenty to do tomorrow during the day while the vampiric minions from the East are busy dying from the Yard Guard.<\/p>\n

While I will also be dropping the body off for upholstery<\/a>, I intend to try to get enough done to attempt crank the engine. Admitedly, that’s pretty ambitious, butcha gotta have goals…<\/p>\n

Mechanically, the biggest thing will be finishing off the fuel tank, which is putting the pump in it, putting the filler on top and mounting it. I also need to cut and mount the plate that all the relays and such will be mounting to.<\/p>\n

After that, it’s just wiring. A lot of wiring, but just wiring.<\/p>\n

The throttle body has connectors for the TPS and IAT sensors, as well as the IAC motor and two injectors.<\/p>\n

Speaking of injectors, I still have not been able to identify the EX650 specific injectors well enough to discover their flow rates, so I substituted two injectors from the throttle bodies I removed from Buzz. Their flow rate is known to be 245 cc\/min. Guessing at a couple other values and plugging them into the Req_Fuel calculator<\/a>, these injectors should provide a reasonably long idle pulsewidth. This was a big issue with Buzz, where a 538cc engine was trying to idle when supplied with fuel from four of these injectors. This 1600cc engine with only two of them should be a better match. The nose of the 245cc injectors is slightly shorter that the stock ones, but I don’t expect it to be a problem.<\/p>\n

But back to the wiring…<\/p>\n

I have a waterproof box to put the ECU in. Hopefully it won’t run hot in there. All the relays and fuses will be on a plate or board just in front of the engine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
