Left it at George's and he did it. I've heard the injector can be a bit hard to remove but the ECU is just plug and play. He did say it was a bit too rich for riding around town so he put it on his AFR module. So, could be something frustrating if you lack a little expertise. The injector is loctited in and the new one should get some loctite on install. I'm sure he used his AFR because it made it easier to gauge his iBeat adjustments.

Others around here have done it. I think you could eventually get it but you will need iBeat...pretty sure. Search the ECU/Injector threads ....at least one blow by blow description I remember. You could call George and get his advice too.

thanks for the info. I can tell already I can't do it I don't have ibeat and I don't even know what it is. I will call the dealer mon. and see if they can do it. i will post the quote they give so others will have an idea what it costs.

you guys are amazing.... I still cannot for the life of me get it!! I have a 2011 TE310 that was oem stock in closed course unplugged set up ridden and raced and even pro podiumed a ama d37 enduro in that stock form, with no issues, I added the 2012 race kit, TXC ecu and new injector runs even better, raced and ridden all the time never an issue, been riding the OEM stock TXC310R for a few weeks now, zero issues, where do you find your bikes?? they are just machines with mikuni or keihin f.i. kokusan ignitions italian and german designed engines, all the top quality parts and high end hardware. PS if it isnt running and quitting try the thermostat switch some guys have had an issue with that item , mine have had zero issues good luck, your crf450 story is absurd

Really I saw the race on tv I think it was the supercross race last week or 2 weeks ago on cbs or speed i don't remember which one and the announcers stated it at least 2 times that the bike was a stock bike bought that week. his name is andrew short. Here is an article stating the bike was a production based model. I am glad you have had such good luck with your bike but from what i can tell and my own experience you are one of the few.
After an incredible 6th place ride on a production based bike in Oakland, Andrew Short finally has time to bring his fans current with his situation. Effective as of last week, long-time crowd favorite Andrew Short and L&Mc Racing, LLC have parted ways. “This has been one of the most challenging experiences of my life. I’m looking forward to see what the next chapter in my career will become. Personally, I can’t wait to see what lies in front of me!”
Andrew wishes to convey his personal gratitude to all the parties who have worked hard to support his success on the racetrack. In particular, special thanks go to American Honda, Fly Racing, Western Power Sports, Scott USA, and Alpinestars.
Always one to put on a smile and see the positive, Andrew is undeterred and working around the clock to find a solution and continue a stellar 2013 season.

First off, screw you for coming on here and...not posting pictures of the street triple. .

I really hope everything works out for you and I'm sure it will. From everything I've read the performance oriented dual sports have this flame out issue (KTMs also). I think it has something to do with them squeezing out as much as they can and then detuning it. After all, no one expects much from a wr250r, klx, or xr.

I know it's not the answer you want to hear but a JD is your best bet. Motosportz (site sponsor) sells them. He also manufactures protective parts and sells some maintenance items. I only throw him out there because I'm sure his price is really competitive but he is also really active here and a phone call away if you need help. I installed a pc5 before and it was pretty simple and I assume the JD is about the same. The JD has limited settings which also makes it easier for us regular folk to set up.

Hey Johnrg
I can't go there with you I have bought a lot of bikes over the years. I just traded my 2011 gsxr 750 for a speed triple my first non-jap street bike both bikes were perfect. I still have a 2010 kawi z1000 that is a complete beast and all the other bikes i have had r-1,r-6,hayabusa,b-king etc.. as well as my dirt bikes have been flawless out of the box. This husky italian made is not up to par with the other makes. i have been reading a bunch of posts today and I realize this bike from the factory and it's dealer network is a mess. No other make of bike i have had functions like this. I will try and sort it out but I cannot recommend this bike to anyone and I can't chalk it up to that's the way it is for all makes because I have not found that to be true at all. As a matter of fact I was watching the AMA motorcross pro race last week and one of the riders lost his factory ride that week and he went and bought a Honda 450 and raced it out of the box and came in 5th I think in the main betting James Stewart etc.. Think about it a brand new out of the box crf 450 was raced at the highest pro level and the guy was top ten. That's a long way from were we are with this bike.
peace m

i am hearing you i have just bought 2 te 310s after 25 years on three honda xr s the power delivery is alien to me the bike shop have told me of 3 mods to get better bottom end i will try the cheapest first and work through to the most expensive hopefully this would solve my thoughts on what is missing on making this bike a great bike here in australia the 2012 te 310 was voted best dirt bike of the year so there must be some good there i think the guys that test and rate these bikes are all expert to pro level which might make a difference my son 20 years old rides the other one and has taken to it like a duck to water he loves it and now rides at the front of our group and gives me tips on how to ride it (getting riding advise from my son is very grounding but i am trying to do what he tells me) i have done almost 1000kms on it and getting used to riding with 2 fingers on the clutch at all times and at times am getting a beautiful flow happening in smooth tight single trail anything to rough and i struggle this same trail i use to smash through on the xr 400 i will stick with this bike and at the most $1500 should see this bike transformed into what i want most jap dirt bikes here cost 12 to 13 grand the huskys cost me $10,000 so i think i will still be in front financially buy with a bike that goes and handles better than most so stick with it mate

OK, I apologize if someone has mentioned this as I only skimmed some of these posts. First off, is the bike just cutting out or is it bogging, not keeping a steady RPM when you have the throttle steady? Is it hard for the starter to re-start when it does stall? or does the starter labor almost to a stop anytime you re-start? Don't just go and throw money at it trying to solve the issue. With it only having 200 miles on it and I am assuming you bought it locally, I would take the bike back to the dealer and explain about your foot and just getting back on the bike. You need to have the mechanic to at least ride and it see what you are talking about. The few things I am thinking are pretty simple and the dealer will more than likely help you out. Let me know if it is just a cough and re-fires right back up or if it is running erratic. Also I have owned several of these Huskys, some come perfect out of the box and some don't but I can promise no two are alike. They are great bikes and nothing handles near as good as your Husky.

Hey Johnrg
I can't go there with you ...

I concur with your frustration... Didn't mean to sound dissmissive of the real issue.

 

[jerbear610]

I'll repeat what others have tried to explain to you. These bikes come very lean out of the box because they're plated and have to pass
emissions etc... Most people who buy one know this going in and are willing to do whatever needs to be done to get it dialed in whether it's
a JD Tuner, Power Commander or whatever because they know that once it's dialed in they've got a bad ass high performance dirt bike that can
also be ridden on road. To say the Husky is not on par with other makes is kind of silly. Name one Jap made street legal dirt bike that even comes
close to your TE310 in quality and off road ability.

The stalling is random sometimes i am going 15 to 20 mph hit the gas and it stalls no bog just dies. It also stalls when i am downshifting not all the time random which makes it impossible to overcome cause i have no idea when it will do it. The starter struggles to refire sometimes but after a couple of attempts it will catch. I will take it to the dealer and see what they say and i will post the answer they give. If you have any ideas lmk and thanks for the encouragement cause i am bummed right now . M

I agree there is no jap bike with quality of parts this bike has but i would rather have the yamaha which is pretty close and will perform properly and meet my need for a biike that can handle agressive single track

I think you are right but i am going to back to the dealer first and see what they say but from what i am hearing it will be my problem to fix which is the crux of my aggravation as i paid over 7k new for a bike that does not run correctly seem wrong to me. If i need the tuner i will get with guy you mentioned and thanks for the heads up. M

Maybe once it is fixed i will agree with you but right now i would take the yamaha which is close and would run great out of the box and for the price difference i could spend the money if i wanted to upgrade it. I don.t race motorcross i do single track so i am not sure i need the most trick bike just a good bike that will run and let me enjoy the ride . If husky would have disclosed the bike will need parts ect.. to run right before i bought it i would have passed.

First off is to be sure that the TPS is reset when the bike is good and warm. This is done with Ibeat and your dealer should have it. There was one 2012 TXC 310 here that stalled very easily and it also had a issue when hot the starter would almost stop, similar to a low battery. This bike was solved by going on the tight side of the exhaust valve adjustment. I did not understand how that could help with stalling but it did. It has to do with the way the heads were bored for the valves and the decompression lever. The enrich screw on the fuel injection is another thing that has helped a few 2012's. You should be sure the TPS (throttle Position Sensor) is reset first. The enrich screw is a philp spring loaded screw and be sure to know how far it is turned out stock (so you can reset it if this does not help). Mark it with paint if it is not already. If you turn that in just 1/8 of a turn that will richen the bike up on the lower end, it could need leaned which would be out. Do this with a warmed up bike and adjust it til it runs the smoothest. Small adjustments here. Hope this helps.

You should be able to get your bike running without a $200 tuner. Is the bike powered up from the dealer? Is your dealer type type that just sells the bikes and has almost zero knowledge of tuning? Not knocking your dealer (or anyone elses) but some have a tendency to have the 'sell it and forget it' mentality where others strive to fix issues that customers are having. I have dealt with both kinds in the past and I make sure that if I put my hard earned cash out there it will definitely be at a dealer that loves and has knowledge of the brand. A lot of us drive further distances and spend more money to go to a solid well respected Husky dealer. Your probably right that any issues will have to be paid for out of your pocket (and that blows) but the dealer should at least figure out whats wrong for free or a reduced rate. For cryin out loud your bike only has 200 miles on it. I am assuming that your bike has no warranty left? Do the TE bikes come with a warranty? From the symptoms it sounds like a faulty part of the electrical system. Could be a bad sensor or loose / chaffing wire. I removed every electrical connector on my TXC and put dialectic grease on it. If you dont want to put any money out yet I would try doing the free things like checking wiring and connections. Make sure ALL electrical points have solid connections. These bikes wont kick start without battery voltage (very silly) so I am assuming that if you had a slightly loose battery connection, it would cause the bike to stall at any given time, and then start right back up again. When problems are intermittent like yours it makes things more difficult. If the dealer is going to charge you just to look at the bike, then I would do a little trouble shooting first. Are you comfortable using a volt / ohm meter? They can be very useful when checking electrical issues. Start with checking / greasing (use the proper grease! ) all electrical connections. Hope you get it figured out bro! You will absolutely LOVE the bike when its running right! I have Ibeat if you want to use it. What part of CT are you in?

The mention of other bikes you are going to buy does not motivate the responses that help solve the issue. If you are done with the bike just sell it and get what you want.

But I think its something that could be resolved w/o big money- just knowledge of someone that can diagnose.

Take it to the dealer you bought it from and have them go over it (if they don't sound confident- find another). Sounds like initial set up tuning, diagnosis, can solve. IBEAT hookup. There are a multitude of small issues that could be causing your issues. The upgrades have been found to increase power and in affect solve some issues- but your problems sound more basic: temp sensor, weak ground at coil, TPS adjustment, CO Settings, fuel pump checks out, PowerUP mode? CAT? Emitions stuff>? . By not exploring this stuff on your own- means to me you need help from your dealer- I hope they are helpful. Good Luck-

I am going to the dealer this week I hope. I will call them this am. I will mention the possible fixes you suggested and maybe they can get it done. I really appreciate the time you took to help me out. I know I sound like a baby but I think others should be aware of what to expect when they buy this bike. I hope in the end I will be able to say it was no big deal easy fix you want this bike but right now not so much.

you are right I only mention the other bikes out of frustration. The dealer I bought it from is 2hrs away there is a dealer a little closer which I am going to try. I will post the results. thanks m
