explain please

what happened to the temp sensor that was there, is it gone, it sends a signal to the computer so that the computer can adjust the fuel to the temperature.

find A08 in the above file, if you want to take a chance on burning a hole in the piston by running too lean, you could substitute a resistor, but I would suggest putting the original back and find a different place for your manual gauge.

It has been a long time since I messed with my temperature sensor, but I think it may have been 2 sensors in one, one for the computer and one for the gauge, if I remember correctly, you can measure the resistance from terminal to terminal and from terminal to ground.

I don't know how or if the computer uses these readings, except to guess that if the computer thinks the engine is hot, maybe it dumps lots of fuel into it trying to keep it cooler, or if it thinks the engine is cold, it richens the mixture for easier ignition. I do not know. and I don't know what value of resistor to suggest.

I guess my suggestion would be to buy a new standard sensor and figure out how to put it back in.

When you get the new one, can you take some measurements?

First, do you have a good Ohm meter? If so, can you measure the resistances of terminal to terminal and each terminal to case while in a bath of ice water, then while in boiling water or hot oil if you have a way to measure the temperature,

Which sensor Lenny - the one at the head or the one on the radiator at the bottom?

I took the Rad one out and put my temp sensor there, and have had no running issues at all. Hopefully I pulled the right one...

The one in the heads is the one that the computer is interested in.

      2017 TW450 Kohler ECH440 runs out of fuel when running wide open.
      By Sammy
      Runs fine just putting around the yard. Get it out on the road and about a half miles it runs out of gas. Let it idle for a few minutes and it will run for another half mile and do it again. Replaced both fuel pumps and filter. Does anyone know if I can get rid of the factory fuel pump?

      Shift cable problem, 2017 Stampede 900, need advice
      By jertex
      I bought a 2017 Stampede 900 last fall that was new, old stock with less than 5 hours on it thinking that I would be getting a relatively trouble free UTV as compared to buying a used Polaris or CanAm, or Honda, etc. It's been a little quirky, but reliable. What I thought was just a minor issue with this model, the difficulty in shifting between R, N, L, H, etc., was just a characteristic of this model is now a big problem. I had to climb two very steep trails to get to the upper meadow of our hunting property, which seemed to stress the UTV more than usual since I was carrying some lumber to work on a platform for a hunting blind, and when I went to shift into park, I felt something give and it would not shift out of low, but it did move up into high gear.  I couldn't get it to shift at all at that point and the shifter felt mushy for lack of a better word. I was able to get it down to the lodge and when I investigated, I discovered that the straight, metal tube portion of the shift cable had bent to almost 90 degrees (see pics). I'm positive that it had already had some deformation that had happened previously and it had the right amount of resistance to bend to the point where it was unusable. 
      I have two questions:
      1. I suspect that there must be some other issues that makes this UTV difficult to shift, and I'm wondering if this is a common problem and if someone could enlighten me on what could cause this to be difficult to shift?
      2. Have any of you had this happen and if so, how difficult is it to replace the shifter cable?
      Any other advice is welcome, this is the first UTV that I've ever owned, so I don't know much about working on these or maintaining them. I'm relatively capable when it comes to working on my own vehicles in general, and I'm not afraid to take things apart and get my hands dirty.
      Thanks in advance for any insight, I'll be traveling most the day so I won't get a chance to look at replies until this evening.

      Hoping someone out there somewhere can help.....2019 Massimo Buck 400S
      By AaronD1982
      Onto the next problem, everything has been replaced in the charging system except the Flywheel Rotor, I have it torn apart all the way down to said rotor, but it is suggested that a specific puller is required, and a compatible rotor seems virtually impossible to find.  I can find many like it, but this one is mine scenario for those that get the reference.  For all I know I have the last Massimo Buck 400S on the planet and will never find another part again, but who knows.  Any ideas, help or otherwise that anyone might have would be greatly appreciated.

      Can-Am spare parts?
      By Fmaxiron
      Hit a rock last weekend and trashed my front A-arm and axle on my Outlander. I’ve been looking around for reliable sources for replacement components. A lot of listings online look a bit hit or miss, so I’m trying to figure out what’s actually worth trusting.
      Has anyone here had good luck with dealers or sites where you can buy genuine Can-Am spare parts online without worrying about quality issues or fake OEM stuff? I’d rather pay a bit more and get the right fit than deal with problems later.
      Any recommendations appreciated.
