pmuhob Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Well, title says it all. I decided to replace sparkplugs, put a K&N air filter in, tune the ecu (vcyclenut tune), remove the o2 sensor, and put it all back together. After reassembly, the bike wont start. Some notes: -When trying to start, the bike will sometimes sputter or "quietly" backfire. -I smell gas when turning the motor over. Im thinking its possible i didn't plug something in (or i didnt plug the sparkplug wires in in the correct order) as you have to remove the tank, airbox, ecu, and air induction system to get to the plugs. If anyone has any ideas on what to check as i tear the bike down again please let me know. Also if anyone has a go-by diagram or picture of which plug goes to which sparkplug, please let me know!

empire00 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Sounds like the plug wires are in the wrong order to me. Do you have a check engine light on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koth442 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I'd be looking for loose connections or connectors that aren't connected. Also, are you sure the ECU tune downloaded properly? '15 FJ09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmuhob Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 I'd be looking for loose connections or connectors that aren't connected. Also, are you sure the ECU tune downloaded properly? The display shows up as it should, im assuming that the flash and ecu are ok. Ill also check again to see if the check engine light is on. How else can i check this?

koth442 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I'm not really sure. I've only ever dealt with TuneECU on a Triumph. Sorry I can't be more help. '15 FJ09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skipperT Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 The fastest way to figure it out, is to take it back apart again. Start by lifting the tank and make sure the fuel pump is plugged in, then remove the air box and check the sensors, etc. Wiggle test anything you remember disconnecting, etc. No, there aren’t pictures. The service manual has a general diagram of where things are, but not actual photos for reference. Worst case we can take a photo of a running bike. But you need to narrow it down first. -Skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbeau Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Here's some pictures of under the airbox if that'll help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skipperT Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 @pmuhob - dbeau’s 4th shot has a fairly good view of the wires leading to the coil packs and the direction the connectors should face. Also note the blue connector on the intake air pressure sensor. There are 2 of those, make sure they are plugged in correctly. While you are checking the wiring, make sure the vacuum lines are plugged into the sensors, and there isn’t a vacuum leak. What year is your bike? If it’s a 15-16 model, check the DTC’s and report back with that info. I would also verify that you actually plugged into the O2 wiring. Though the engine should still start with the o2 disconnected. Let us know what you find, -S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmuhob Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 Here's some pictures of under the airbox if that'll help... Dbeau you beautiful bastard thats all i needed. Cylinder 2 and 3's wires were crossed. Bike fired up on the first try after that. Thanks to everyone who offered advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
