mrgrouchyguy appreciate the comment. The service manual also has some tests for verifying the resistance of the 3 tps pins but it was clear to me after the voltage test we had a problem

I'm glad it helped that's awesome!

@@trailblogger great Video. What type of gear/ chest protector is that your wearing at the end of this video. Looks like solid rugged set up.

Fox Titan jacket. Thanks for watching!

Could be, but I would start simple first. I would start with just a fresh spark plug and fresh fuel. Check the compression and spark ( make sure top end is not blown she has a steady blue spark ). Completely drain ALL the old rotten fuel outta that tank. Do you hear the fuel pump priming when you turn the key on? Should hear it run for about 15 seconds while it builds fuel pressure when you first turn the key on. Also the service manual has another test for checking the resistance on the TPS when it's off the quad. I would check that as well before you buy a new one.

Thanks man! Unfortunately, my TPS tested well, so I am still stumped :(

change the spark plug! NGK CR8E. O reillys, autozone, napa has them for $3.

What did your issue end up being?

true, love the old school bikes, less to go wrong. I actually just learned my YFZ450 actually has a TPS as well that controls the timing map.

I'm an ASE master mechanic. Deal with this stuff on cars every day. I don't want my toys to have those kind of issues. Besides, I love the smell of a 2 stroke, and, that smell!!!!!!

Appreciate your comment too! Thanks for watching

hahah glad I inspired you to go rip it up! thanks for watching and leaving a comment

the red boxer mix is Rosie dog and the cowdog is Hunter. they are good supervisors lol

Get the service manual PDF, it has the proper procedure to calibrate yours.

Thank you. I have a hardcopy coming but meanwhile I downloaded the pdf version. This should really help me

Cuervo racing says the harnesses on some early raptors were bad. Check out his video

toss a new spark plug in there also. they have them down at autozone / oriley / napa etc

very cool!

Glad it helped

glad it helped!!!

WHAT WHAT WHAT? Bear Claw Evo you say? Hmmmm this I must go see

TrailBlogger Ha,Ha! Dude, you really stand behind those Bad boy Bear claws. Yes I did a search on the Kenda Bear claws and I was just clicking random reviews of them and low & behold there was a review that showed the original Kenda bear claw, a new bear claw Evo that was Desighned for performance & lighter weight.it looks pretty Kool also. then they showed the Bear claw r series radial. I know you recommended them to me before for there awsome grip in all conditions. I was hesitant because they seemed more so geared for utility use & I wasn't sure how the handling would be along with or if they would allow me to slide the back end around turns without catching & flipping me over, lol. but they seem to be able to withstand the heavy abuse you put them through and you have nothing but positive things to say about them. Your enthusiasm about those Bear claw evos has got me really thinking now.. It would between those & the Gbc like the ones on your mean, green machine.

you are right the 22" bear claws are more of a heavy tire that gives extreme traction but they can be clumsy cornering compared to a square nob like the GBC XC masters. I have always wanted to run a 20" bear claw but I did not think they offered that size in the past.

TrailBlogger choices ,choices. That might be where the Bear claw Evo might come into play & split that difference. We need to find some real world reviews. Tires are a major expense for a family guy like me. So that's why I'm trying to get as much info on the topic. But there's not really much info out there on the new Evo yet. I've seen so many modded banshees get spanked by big bore utilities on short Dirt/mixed drag races because knobbies don't hook as well as a deep lug heavy carcass utility tire and they spin all the way down the track, by the time they hook, the race is over. I want that good hookup off the line but would like the ability to slide the back end around long sweepers at a good clip. The other prob with the traditional bear claws is rotating mass.

agree the kendas are bulky. mega traction but at a cost. that's why I ended up putting the pair we had on the raptor 700. it has no problem turning all that mass with all that low end torque. they 450 had trouble turning them and I would NOT recommend them for a track bike where you actually want to break the tread free and blow up corners. it's more of a trail tire designed to climb just about anything you point it at, mud, rocks snow. the only thing I had which fit that ticket better was the ITP Spider Tracs which are not longer in production. I might have to try the bear claw evo out in a 20 if they make them.

backfiring like a canon going off

Did you fix it im have same issues on my dirtbike

Im having the same issue as Josuechuy, did you ever fixed it?

you adjust the voltage by turning it

@@trailblogger thank for the response nobody on KZfaq has a video on the installation

ive seen guys stick two tiny needles in the wired and test with those or there is a piggyback connector you can test with if you dont want to poke holes in your actual wiring harness

@@trailblogger thank you so much brother I really appreciate it

no problem! do you have a powercommander fuel controller? think those might have an option for that it their diagnostics features

From what I learned when the TPS was going out in my Raptor (which has an '06 throttle body on it) The early TPS are prone to leaking and you may have water or condensation inside which could be causing it to go off even after perfectly adjusted. In my case I replaced the entire TPS. Good luck, I hope you get it figured out. Let me know if that helps.

@@trailblogger 🤦‍♂️silly me while adjusting the sensor I mistakenly moved it too much to the left and the spring inside the tps sensor had snapped ....the readings on the volt meter are working normal....it is okay if I would still continue riding with it like that ...and yes there is moisture inside of the sensor connectors...I just left it open to air dry abit....the readings on the meter are still between 0.67 and 5.2v although I'll just double check it tomorrow

love our raptor 700 but its a big quad with a lot of power. raptor 350 is a great all around trail quad too that is perfect for learning on.

thx 4 the info

Me too did u figured out what it was I replaced the tps but no start still thanx

the body of the TPS (throttle position sensor) rotates on the side of the throttle body. i was rotating the TPS just slightly.

My bike is having this issue

What year is it?

@@trailblogger it’s a 2007 the bike shuts off about 30 seconds after it starts , we’ll the fuel pump shuts off , it only runs if you ride it and give it above about 30% throttle

@@Carloslawncareinc same issue on my 2015

@@twistedmetriccycles turns out I got my injector cleaned and changed tps sensor

Very carefully

12 volt? just turn it until you see the same decimals places im showing

right! i heard they leak less?

it can

try a fresh spark plug first and check for loose connections. see if it's getting spark. start simple.

TrailBlogger ive done it all fresh gas fresh spark plug check gas line ran through the harness spark plug is getting fire only I havent done is taken the head off to see if any valves are stuck

compression test it, see if she is still building pressure

That seem to be the problem honestly but I dont have ome of those guages yet

I put off getting one forever now I use it all the time to rule out top end issues. that and a low pressure leak down tester gauges.

Hmf full system

TrailBlogger Ok thanks!

yes. yes it could.

it is just the one that comes with the pro design intake adapter

sorry i dont have the size but can measure

rocky mountain atv oem section

have you checked the valve clearances?

@@trailblogger I'll check them maybe it improves, thanks

Hey Bro, did you solve the problem??. appears you had the same problem I have with my raptor.

@@josuechuy2434 yaaa one of the wires to the main connector was loose, fixed that and it went perfect again.. high rpms wasnt the issue.. i thought it was but it wasnt.. it only cut out at higher rpms cause more vibrations that loosens the wire more.. thats all. It was easy fix

NICE glad you got her fixed!

i would double check a service manual

hi ricardo

I like your videos

Your TPS could be bad, they can get moisture inside

Rocky mountain atv OEM section has parts in stock

TrailBlogger thanks

Welcome! I hope this helps solve your issue! Let me know if that solves it!

TrailBlogger I looked for the part number on the website and I couldn’t find the part

Click on OEM parts and pick your year Yamaha raptor then pull up the parts diagram. You have to use the OEM section on the homepage.

xD

From what i heard the early 2006-2007 versions were more prone to leak and i suspect this one got water inside or the harness connectors.

hey
