Hot Start Trouble w/ Air Cooled Engine

Hey Guys,
I've got my KZ1000 motorcycle running pretty decent on a v3.0 MS-II w/ 2.88 code for the last week or so. However, I'm having startup troubles when hot and I wanted to run something by you.

My temp tables currently run from 40°-160°F. Since it's a bike, I don't need cold temps. However, since it's a air cooled engine, 250°F operation is pretty common from what I've seen so far. Currently, I'm running WUE up to about 120° or so; beyond that, it's just 100% WUE. Since this temperature table is used for WUE, ASE, AS taper, & cranking pulses, I'm often waaayy out beyond the right edge of the chart.

Is it acceptable for me to change my temp tables to run from 40° to 260° with the main intent only being to use those higher temp values for cranking & afterstart tuning? I'd still be off WUE by about 120°, no need to change that.

Thanks,

Have you tried disabling your hot ASE? You might also try changing Prime, ASE, WUE, Baro Tables to "table" instead of "two point". This way you could flatten out the areas you don't use without losing the WUE you want.

devastator,
Thanks for the response. I already have the values in table mode, not 2-point. I missed the 'Disable ASE on Hot Start' toggle. One of those settings I never needed before, so I forgot about it. I'll try it tomorrow.

Thanks,
