luhbo Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 My problems were heavy emc interference from crappy plug caps. Between 3 and 4K it was really bad, had to stay below or above. The gap was 1.2 mm. I reduced it to rather zero what made a big improvement. The history behind it: I had changed the plug caps (to the crappy ones), as a result the MyEcu quit working. Swapping this against a Marelli ecu seemed to work, but only until the engine had warmed up. From here on I was on the wrong track. Anyway, a weak, or as in my case, a too noisy phase signal may totally spoil your bike experience Good thing is: the sensor itself is rather robust. Properly mounted it's not a part to be afraid of.

Kiwi_Roy Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 I find the easiest way to gap the sensor is to stick something like a glob of JB Weld on the tip, bolt it in place, wait for the JBW to set up then remove it again and measure the blob with a pair of callipers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 When I was going through the Centauro, I used the depth measurement end on the calipers. I would no doubt permanently affix the sensor to the flywheel using the JB method. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gstallons Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 '.030'' is the recommended air gap . You should have an assortment of gaskets to get the right gap . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swooshdave Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Where do you get that tool? Let me guess, it’s called a cam sensor gauge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easily made in an afternoon with a lathe, as it said back in the days on Hooker headers. I did find it much easyer than with the caliper. Cheers Tom.
