Already have cans mate, filters waiting for payday. Seems I misunderstood parts though. Not to worry.

That popping is 'backfire' It's when unburnt fuel in the exhaust system meets fresh air the the temperature causes it to burn rapidly in the exhaust. The AIS or Air Induction System is a system where a pipe from the airbox goes into the exhaust side of the engines head and on throttle closing a little valve opens and allows cool air from the airbox directly into the exhaust burning any unburnt fuel to help keep the emissions down. It's basically a built in backfire system. Stage 1 and 2 filters will add more HP Adjusting the CO1 levels up is purely to help smooth out the engine running at small throttle openings (between 16 and 18 on the Throttle position sensor) I believe. If you've got aftermarket cans then the AIS can be blocked to stop backfire Generally, I'm led to believe that any value between 15 and 18 is ok for the TPS, the higher the value the richer the mixure will be. The TPS needs to be set with the throttle closed. From Kevs understanding the best setting he found was 16. |

I have put as much info on all XT660's in one section call the Modification Index. Page to the very bottom of this thread & you will find the info you need. |
hello, i put the stock pipes on my xtx with the stage 1 filter, where the C01 number i put ? stock is number 7
thank you |
try increment of 5 and see which is the set up that suits you, it is a matter of trial an error for all of us, as no two bikes behave in the same way.
Good luck |

excellent, thanks for the info - by "too dry" or "too wet", what would I look for? I have the technical knowledge of a goldfish....
|
Have a good read through that. in fact I'll make this a "sticky" in a new thread for the rest of the members to use as a reference

this site is brilliant - thanks!

You are safe to go up by 30, more then that & the bike will be to rich.
Just a reminder this CO adjustment is for idle & part throttle only, it does not adjust the fuelling once the throttle is past 19 on the Throttle Position Sender. To adjust the fuelling across the whole fuel range you need a fuelling device. |
thanks Kev...
do you know anyone in Darwin who could do your fuel mod if I get it off Ebay? I wouldn't be able to do it myself.. (yes, I realise it is easy, but....!) Also, the adjustment to the CO has sorted out 90% of the issues. |
Was in the city allday today and the surging and harsh throttle responce was very much there and I felt the bike would be a pig offroad looked at the CO and it was at 11
I started increasing it by 5 at a time im now up to 41 an increase of 30 which ive read by Kev thats abouts as much as you can go the bike is better but still not as good as the XT660Z I had that was sooo much better going to get a Kev mod next for sure |
Yes that can be a solution but please make sure you consult Kev fully as there are many items at play that determine surging and snatchy behaviour, the four main culprits usually are:
1) incorrect idle speed (tickover) which should be set between 1450 to 1500 rpm. 2) incorrect TPS angle, too close and it will shut the fuel prematurely, too open and it would flood the engine. 3) the least suspected one and often one of the main causes is: the level of wear in your rear hub dampers, otherwise known as cush drive rubbers, when they are worn they allow too much play and with that I would also check for a correct chain tension and wear of both chain and sprocket. 4) the one which nobody bothers to check is the side stand switch, if yours is mucky and dusty, it may causes it to stay in the open position or flick between open and close and makes the engine cut off automatically at random, so it's always worth keeping it clean and protected with WD40 or similar preserving lube. |
2009 Xt660r
Thought I would post my observations.
Just bought a new 2009 XTR. No obvious surging but very jerky/lumpy? at low revs. Factory CO 13 Increased CO to 20 - no change Increased CO to 25 - much smoother Experimented by 5's up to 40 with very slight changes and have settled on 38. |
My observations too (changing CO and effect on RPM at idle):
TPS 16 , CO 11 (from factory) CO RPM idle 11 1240-1270 15 1240-1270 much healthier sound, smooth low end 18 1350-1390 less pops 19 1310-1350 less pops 21 1310-1350 no pops at all For now, I left it at 18, planning to rise RPM up to 1400 and read plug for final decision. And maybe changing TPS to 17. |
Effect of altitude on standard C01 setting
I have a 2008 XTR. The standard C01 setting on my particular bike is 12. I assume that this setting is based on the assumption that the bike will be run at sea level. I live at 1600m above sea level, should I reduce the C01 setting to compensate?
Also, I have had issues the engine stalling at idle speeds when trying to accelerate. Would lowering the C01 also remedy this issue? |
Cutting out and running rough!
I have just done the hold select and reset thing on my XT660X and bumped the CO level from 6 to 15 and what a difference, no surging, no cutting out and much smoother running. How many people have sold the bike because of this problem or Yamaha agents made ripping owners off for a simple 60 second fix?
Cheers for the fix.:eusa_dance: |
Free advice off likeminded individuals! Brilliant. Adjusted my xt sumo from 8 to 16. Stunning difference when plodding around town. This bike is perfect for 90% of the roads where i live on the isle of man. Wearing my boots out is the next issue.

Well i experimented today with the co level, standard setting was 13 so i upped to 19. didnt notice any difference, so upped again to 23 and still cant see any improvement. Next step, remove snorkle?? or "the Kev mod" or both?

its an 07 model, so i gather i will need a 2010 mod with 02 eliminator & a power commander. How much would these cost ? cheers

Thanks for the help Kev, I,ll have a think about getting these.

hi guys, does this CO mod work on the Ten? on my 09 Ten holding the buttons in and switching the ignition on only allows me to change Miles/Km and the Time :102:

Yes the new O2 eliminator does work on the Zed, you can't enter the dash throught the buttons on your Zed you need the Yamaha fault code read tool to do this. XT660Z O2 mod installation instructions. To download any of these links below copy & paste the links to a URL & click DOWNLOAD NOW wait for the counter to count down, then click DOWNLOAD file now save the files to a folder on your desktop. http://www.4shared.com/document/S3SyRIeE/The_Kev_XT660Z_O2_Eliminator_M.html |
I,am a little bit confused, is this without PC5 & much more. How come I only got 42hp with my mod 2-1 system, O2 optimizer, KN filter, PC5?
http://www.sporthoj.com/forum/attach...0&d=1344283504 My dyno |
I never look at one off dyno runs as they don't really tell you much as every Dyno in the world reads differently, some to high & some to low & very rarely read the same.
What I always look at is the before & after gains of Dyno runs on the same Dyno, this is the only way to measure the true gains from mods. Always ask for a before & after dyno sheet. A few questions, was your AIS blocked off during the dyno tune? I see from your Dyno sheet they set the A/F ratio to between 12.5 & 12.8:1, the 660 motor produces the best torque & HP with an A/F ratio around the 13.2:1 mark. Did the Dyno tunner tune for A/F ratio or max HP & Torque? As 12.5:1 will not produce the MAX HP & Torque. |
Hi guys, first post and a very happy xtx owner of two days
I have an 04 with micron race cans, decnt filters and a pc111 which has been dyno tuned. This was all done before i bought the bike second hand Co was 20, tried 25 which made the surge worse! Dropping to 18 has made it better, can i go leaner much? No one seems to drop the co, only raise? Cheers, vince |
i am struggling to find these pictures can anyone help
|
Which pictures are you after?
