I'm not sure if I missed it in the sensor trial thread, but how much thermal grease is enough? My original head temp. sensor was really stuffed with it.
Good - that's what I did.Just smear it all over and a blob on the tip. It will mix with what’s already in there.
Pulled the plug and saw it had started to corrode so cleaned up, dialelectric grease into the nooks and crannies and problem solved. Apparently crank sensors can be affected by temperature .
Will do.Also try cleaning airbox temp sensor with alcohol. That always made my bike start easier
Yes, I did. I believe it helped the cold start issue and replaced it with warm start issue.Did you check or change head temp sensor, yet?
I’ll try to get to that. It simply threads out and the new one back in. Even just unthread yours and put back and you will see there is nothing to it. No oil will pour out. Nothing to fear.
Thanks for the explanation, Richard.Ahh. The plastic to the brass. If you twist it, you’ll break it.
I must have missed where it makes such a huge difference in performance. I thought durability was the main issue. Ok then. I'll get around to it. Thanks, Richard.Fair enough but the head temp sensor is way more responsive. Take both out hook up to a multimeter. Get a hair dryer and watch. Then you may end up using the bosch. As for the cam. Same thing and get a peice of steel and place it at an exact distance and compare both sensors.
