Massimo msu 400efi intermittent problem


Recommended Posts

So I have a msu400 efi. Ran fine, pulled it into the shop to do my typical routine maintenance, cleaned air filter, change oil, etc. 

So now it won't run right. Starts and idles, stumbles on acceleration. If I baby it I can get it moving, but dies after a few hundred feet and then is hard to start. Will start back and idle just fine as long as you don't rev it up. 

So what I've done so far.

Verified fuel pressure at injector, never losing it. (54psi)

replaced fuel injector. Verified spark right after dying (sparking like hell)

checked valves. ( Proper clearance) replaced map sensor, idle control sensor, and tps. (No change)

disconnected negative battery cable for 20mins (no change)

checked exhaust, (free and clear) 

Checked air filter again and intake tube (all good)

After it dies or if I just let it sit before starting it, it throws code 113, which I've seen is IAT voltage too high or open circuit. I have a 4 wire sensor and am not sure the wiring back to the ecm nor can find a good diagram. Not even sure if this is a problem or just a code it would throw if it is just not running. 

Any help would be appreciated

      I installed an electric coolant temp gauge and volt gauge today. The oil pressure gauge I ordered had a bad sending unit. So once the replacement arrives. I'll add that install to the post. The I used a 22mm temp radiator adapter.

      1/8 " NTP x 1/8 NTP adapter.

      And an electric temp gauge.

       
      Had to take a drill and drill bit to enlarge the 1/8 NTP adapter to allow the temp sending unit to pass thru. Another user on the forum enlarged the 1/8 NTP hole in the 22mm radiator to 1/4 NTP and used a 1/4 NTP x 1/8 NTP reducer. Either way would work. Both has it challenges. And both accomplished the same thing. To get the sending unit just barely in the coolant. If you just put the sending unit in. IMO it just blocks too much of the coolant flow.
      I didn't get a pic of how far the sending unit protrudes into the rad adapter. But it wasn't a lot. And also since it an electric gauge the sending unit needed to be grounded. But since there wasn't a place on the temp radiator adapter. I used a clamp to secure a ground/negative wires to the temp sending unit. The gauge wiring was simple. The gauge's wiring harness had a red, green, and black wire. Red goes to a positive. Black to a negative. Green to the sending unit. Since I had some 18 AGW speaker wire. I used that to run to the sending unit. Red to green, black to black. 
      Then another piece of the speaker wire from the gauge to power source. I tapped into the 12V power outlet on the dash. (Just as I did for the overhead fan.)
      Then used a 2" hole saw to cut into the plastic above what I'd call the radio door.



      The gauge goes to about 174° F then the radiator fan kicks on. Cools down to about 150° F and kicks off. Now the lowest the temp gauge will read is 104° when you first start the machine. That is the nature of the gauge. Even says so on the web page. So I'll just have to live with it.

      Was simple to install. Just a positive and negative wire to connect.  Tapped into the 12V power outlet on the dash.

      Exploring the Grand Canyon's Majesty at the North Rim UTV Fun Run
       
      Embarking on a journey to the Grand Canyon promises breathtaking vistas, but what we encountered during the North Rim UTV Fun Run organized by UTV Offroad Adventures was nothing short of awe-inspiring. The natural splendor we witnessed transcended our wildest expectations, leaving us in perpetual wonder. 
       
      The weather was amazing! Upon our arrival at the Kaibab Lodge, we were immediately captivated by the serene setting. Nestled within a picturesque pasture with the national forest as its backdrop, this lodge was a true oasis. From the deck, where we savored cool beverages, we gazed upon the lush green grass and towering trees that stretched into the horizon. The experience was nothing short of breathtaking, offering a refreshing escape from the sweltering heat, and a chance to inhale the pure mountain air. And let's not forget the culinary delights that awaited us—mouthwatering food that was the perfect complement to the surroundings. As the evening wore on, the lodge became a hub of camaraderie, where stories flowed as freely as laughter. The Saturday night raffle event was a highlight, filled with lively exchanges and tales of the day's exhilarating rides.
       
      Speaking of the rides, both were nothing short of spectacular, showcasing the North Rim of the Grand Canyon's awe-inspiring beauty from every angle. It's a humbling experience to ponder the creation of this national monument, and it truly transports you back in time.
       
      We were joined by over 70 UTVs and 125 adventurers, all seeking the thrill of exploration amidst nature's grandeur.
       
      Bright Angel Point: A Scenic Marvel
      One of the rides led us to Bright Angel Point, renowned as one of the most picturesque spots on the North Rim. Sitting at an elevation over 1,000 feet higher than the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, this vantage point offered a mesmerizing panorama. To the east, the stunning Bright Angel Canyon unfolded, while to the west, Transept Canyon stretched majestically. Below, within the canyon, we could hear the roaring of Roaring Springs, a pristine source of water gushing from a cliff face 3,100 feet below the rim. The trails were a testament to nature's artistry, and each stop along the way was a spectacle in itself. This loop was around 80 plus miles and shared multiple astonishing overlooks.
       
      Point Sublime Trail: A Serene Oasis
      Our second ride took us to the Point Sublime Trail, a hidden gem known for its majestic views. This trail, less traveled by many, allowed us to enjoy the tranquility of the wilderness, punctuated only by the awe-inspiring vistas. It was a place of pure serenity, where the silence enveloped us, offering a chance to embrace the peace and quiet while savoring the views. Along the way, a chance encounter with a coiled snake added a touch of excitement to the experience, reminding us of the untamed beauty of the natural world. This loop was also around 80 plus miles with some of the best overlooks the Grand Canyon has to offer.

      One of my hunting camp partners owns an Arctic Cat Havoc. ( Possibly 2019 model) and yesterday we had it out on the trails and was running fine. Shut it off to do a few things and when restarted we can not get it to go over 4500 RPM. We tried shutting off several times and restarting but still nothing. Topped off with fresh clean gas also. It moves and goes but will not go above that. Any ideas of what could be the cause?
      Thanks for any help in advance.
