RE: Motor stumbles!?
Man, that is great. Now, tell me again what you did.
I understand how to reset the throttle position, but are you talking about the PCIII master reset also? When you do this do you have to reload the map? Did you reset the PCIII master first, then reload the map, then reset the throttle? Not sure what order to use. Finally, what did you do to your rear cylinder?
Sure would be great to find the magic answer to this problem.

I've found that making small changes in the PC3 fine tune buttons will cause or eliminate the missing issue on my 2000 RKC.

RE: Motor stumbles!?
Tatordog did you get your map from Jamie? I played around with the buttons a while back and that is probably when my problem started but didnt notice it because I had other issues of my own doing!!! I can copy and send you my map you can then compare to your map and try it in your bike! I wont beable to do it until tonight or tommorow morning. I got this map from Jamie and he said it was from a dynotuned bike of our same vintage with the same mods. My bike now runs great with a little deceal pop now and agian. I reset the throttle then did the button reset but if you never played with them then there is no need for the button reset. Try leaning yours out one notch on button at a time in mid to see if it will clear out the stumble. I had my buttons adjusted to the rich to try and eleminate the pop but I can wait for the dynotune. Hope it helps

RE: Motor stumbles!?
Son, when I first bought my PCIII from Jamie I hadn't decided on the exhaust yet, so the map he sent was basic. After installing my a/c and Rineharts, I loaded the M802-384 (?) map from the Dynojet website. I don't remember if I had the stumble at that time, but don't think I did. The bike did run rich, though, so I requested a map from Jamie to lean it out. He sent me one, but the stumbling got worse so I went back to the 384 map and started trying to lean it out myself using info from the Forum. Also started playing with running the rear cylinder slightly richer. The bike runs great, but still have the stumbling problem between 2250 to 2750 approx.
If you could send me your current map I'd really like to see how it compares with mine. Just whenever it's convenient for you.
I'll also try the throttle reset again, and the button reset for the hell of it -- got nothing to lose, and maybe I hit some buttons while working on it at one point.
Thanks much for your help.

Hey Son or Bryan, do either of you have the accel pump feature downloaded on your PCIII and are you using it? If so, what settings? It seems to help newer bikes, but not sure if it's useful for ours or not (those with MM EFI).

RE: Motor stumbles!?
Son, do you remember you max throttle setting when you did your reset? Mine seems to bounce around a little when setting both min and max. Not sure if that's normal or not.
