Cold Idel Solenoids

[Dave]

What purpose do they serve?

disconnecting the a wire on each solenoid sounds simple enough so I tried it, its quiet. I'll have to take the bike for a ride today.

Do you then just pull the rubber hose off the solenid and cap? or do you remove the tube at/near the throttle body opening? or do you remove the hose9s) completely and cap of at solenoid and throttle body?

Da Bull Just above you post is Trosco's post which i agree with and just below your post is BD's which I agree with.

The test is to disable the ISC's with the pulling of one same color wire per side. That's it.

Then if you like that, then pull both ISC's right off, take the hoses with them, and cap off the steel ports tubings real tight, maybe silicon glue the caps in place.

For sure tape up the wires very well and nylon tie them to the backing plate which has a little mini framp hole in the plastic.

This allows for a cleaner air flow with any 9x2 filter. I use eithere paper or cloth spector filters. I get a season out of one may to dec1st and that's it.

Someone else asked about the quasi choke. All that does it cam the throttle platre open a bit for more AIR, and trip the throttle plate reostat to tell the ECU where the throttle plate is.

I have never pulled that knob once on my 06, at this point I bet it is seized IN.

I do the same thing it does either by hand or with my throttle lock. And that is run the engine at a slighty higher than normal RPM when it is first cold started for a few moments.

My engine warms up pretty well riding real slow out the 1/2 mile long dirt diveway, then another 1/4 mile maybe to paved real road.

I ride another 8 miles or so real easy to allow all engine systems to warm up before I play bad boy
