[attachment=0:qtkm3la9]husaberg.jpg[/attachment:qtkm3la9]Hi i have recently purchased a 95 husaberg fc 600 it was running fine and started fine just needed a valve adjustment .I got on with the valve adjustment 1mm both intake and exhaust which i got told is right?. started the bike up it ran fine then the next day i took the cam chain tensioner out stretched the spring a little bit as the spring was very spongy and cam chain rattling abit and not tightening properly. put it back on the bike ran fine for 5 seconds then just cut out and all i have been able to do is get it started for say 2 seconds before it cuts out ? but now wont start at all. i am thinking the stator has gone but am unsure i am going to check the resistance when i get the chance but i was just wondering could i have messed the timing up by over tightening the cam chain ? any other ideas on what i could check ? as am completely stuck at the minute. i also turned the tick over screw outwards to get the idle down abit as it was quite high. the bike ran very good with no spluttering before and i just wish i left it alone now. any ideas or advice would be much appreciated
thanks

nathan

Hi

I don't know if I understood you well, but the gap for the valves is not 1mm, it is 0,1mm.

i guess you are reinforcing the statistic that 75% of bike problems are created by fiddling owners. if the chain is loose and the tensioner fully extended, the chain needs replaced. read the owners dxoc and see if yu can set it all properly and also get the specs for testing the stator.
 
yes sorry i meant .1mm lol my mistake. and about the owners manual ? where could i obtain 1 of these i havent been able to find 1 as of now. thanks
 
Hi

The 95 owners won't help you much, but I can send it to you.

The closes thing that I have that will help you is the 99 work shop, and the main difference will be the stator and flywheel.

If you want send me a mail.

you need to get 23 green to black and then the big one....red to black and you want 1750 and this is the one that goes AWOL.

it's weird but a bike that is on the edge of collapse because everything is slightly worn/knackered/set badly/last legs blah! blah! can often be wrecked by touching the bike and doing the simplest task!

where are you from?

hi taffy i am from england. Would you be able to instruct me on how to test them as i have never done this before ? the wires as they are now are connected green to green black to black red to red so how would i test these ? ie put the black prong from the multimeter onto a certain part and the red 1 onto another . also there are a few wires disconnected which a am unsure of what they are for ? i will attach a picture.

thanks

just detach the red, green and black from the same that lead to the ignition module. you're interested in the three as they came out of the stator.

then use the multimeter as said

black to green is 23 ohms resistance
red to black is 1,750 ohms resistance (and usually second click up at '20k ohms')

Taffy
 
So if I've read you right taffy the black prong on the multimeter onto the green wire coming from the stator should read 23 ohms and the red prong onto the black wire from the stator should read 1,750 ohms ? Also taffy you wouldn't know where I could get a flywheel puller from by any chance
 
I have looked in your ebay shop but can't seem to find them how much are you selling them for and how would I go about buying one ? Thanks
 
you're breaking my balls as the saying goes!

PLEASE do your business away from the site.

send me an email from the webshop and I'll put the total cost together for you.

thanks

It seemed to take the piss after trying at least 30 times I got a reading of 1515 and still haven't managed to get the other readingm I have a good spark the bike will start for maybe 2 revolotions of the engine then cut out :s you got any ideas
 
yeh it is either 1750 or nothing.....sorry!

that's why it nearly starts.

Taffy
 
But the spark is good so would it realy make that much of a difference being a little bit under ? I had it started for about ten seconds it was just spluttering all over the place is that what it would do if it was lower then 1750?
 
A rebuilt stator is a small price to pay for the fun and reliability. Trust him. You don't want a half assed stator cause it will leave you stranded!
 
if you remove the plug cap from the wire it should jump a 10mm gap to ground when cranking .....................or..............you can get a HEI spark plug tester like the one below:



when using this kind of tester if you leave the plug cap on you need to take a paper clip and straighten it out and put it in the holein the porcelain end of the tester, it should jump a gap the distance of the paperclip to the side of the tester..............it wont jump the gap by itself even if all is good.........


if it just jumps the plug gap, that doesnt mean that the plug is good till you make it jump a serious gap like the tester makes it do or the 10mm gap................
 
a typical stator on the blink will make you think that it is running on too much choke. it'll cough and splutter, it won't rev cleanly and then it will stall.

the thing is, you had a bike running fine so it isn't the carb. that leaves a mechanical failure or an electrical one?

the tappets can be so bad that in the end it seems instant when they refuse to run anymore.

after that you have the electrics. the ignition modules (coils) either do or don't work full stop. after that we have poor electrical connections and in some ways there is an element of 'lack of good grounding/earth' in what you describe but at the end of the day it just screams "stator".

Yes taffy It seems its definately the stator after trying to get a spark today with the cap off it wouldn't even jump 1 mm never mind 10mm also red to black reads 1125 and to green it was 24 so I have come to the conclusion it has to be the stator as the tappets seem in good condition and as the bike has had under 100 hours from new (as I'm told ) and I'm only the 3rd owner and all the bike seems to be in very good condition so hopefully once I get the stator rewound the bike should be running spot on :) fingers crossed!!

Thanks for all the info guys its much appreciated.
