TE/TC Lectron

My stock one works well and I had my hands on a 9mm 1911 today that I must have

I had a Springfield 1911 9mm (sweet pistol), traded it for a Taurus .357 SS. Now that's a stopper!
I think I still have a couple of extra mags for the 1911, if you want them let me know.

It was the emp. I'm a big Springfield fan. Might take you up on the offer. Gotta sell the carb first.

I ordered a 2017 KTM 300 XC-W Intake Flange Part # 55430250000. I installed a 38mm Lectron and it was a bit tight to install. Plus the air boot is very close to the rear shock spring. This 2017 300 xc-w intake flange is a few mm shorter and should fix the problem without the need to cut the air boot.

yea why would you do that

Maybe he's having the same problem I'm having with mine? It worked great for a year and now it just floods the bike and if I'm lucky enough to get it running, it runs like trash. I took it apart twice this week and inspected everything, especially the needle seat valve and it all looks ship shape. I'm perplexed. Maybe mine ran out of the magic ferry dust and unicorn farts everyone claims make lectrons work so good? Hehe. Looks like I'll be shipping it back for repair today.

No, runs perfect just saw something else I'd rather have more. please pm me if interested.

What you asking for the weird stick figure in the background?

I posted somewhere here I found a local source for bulk race gas, so started mixing Sunoco 110 with non-ethanol 90 @ 2:3 ratio which results in 98 octane (if I did the math correctly). Also switched the 165 from Klotz ST, 40:1, to Amsoil Dominator, 50:1.
I was running 3-2m rod in 38mm Lectron with my previous fuel mix, @ 95 octane, with the rod pretty lean @ 49.85mm. It was borderline lean on the bottom, a little fat in the middle and top, plug was almost black, but not wet or cruddy.
With the new fuel mix it was way fat on the bottom unless I leaned the rod too much. So today went back to MS-3 rod, @ 49.7mm, and got a big improvement. Now I can feel and smell the race gas, smoke and spooge reduced and back to rippin through the gears without a single hiccup
First clue it was the right move was bike started right up as usual, but had to adjust idle screw to 1 1/2 turns out. It really is that simple to me. The bike should start easy and idle screw should be @ 1 1/2. If not, adjust the rod or try a different one.

I called Lectron today and ordered a replacement needle seat valve. Once it arrives and I get the bike running again with the 3-2xl rod already installed, I plan to try the 2-3xl rod and see how it runs.

The carb sold. Thanks to all who were interested.

For 2017 Husky/Kato 2 Stokes. Jeff may be the guy that sways me. but only when I get that 17/18 TX300

i want to see if Dick Wilks can keyhole bore one ...bet they put a wing in it

jarvis doesnt run one..arent they for people that lack jetting skills?

In my case, yes. I'm a jetting dysfunctional schlub.

So after chasing my tail thinking I was having lectron woes, turns out my 300 swallowed a broken reed petal. I was surprised being it barely has 40 hours. So I'm somewhat pleased the fooding problem has been identified but the prognosis leaves me with the headache of pulling the cylinder off to flush out the case and remove any remnants of the reed.

Oh, all you need is a spray bottle full of gas with a free left hand.

Three sprays for top end

Two sprays for mid

One spray for bottom end

And a gracious local friend to coach a knucklehead like me...

Can you elaborate on this a bit? I'd like to know how this is done, too.
