My TPS was reading 76 and was having issues with it breaking up when I would hammer back on it after shifting. Your video was awesome for walking me though how to adjust and solve my issue.
Someone mentioned the tps to me before how they can cause some grief but had no idea how to diagnose it till i watched this video, nicely put together. Guy should have np figuring this out with vids like this thank gawd for y-tube sometimes.
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 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!!!!!!
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.
I m not sure if my rappy 700r needs its TPS adjusted or not but watching the end of the video makes me wanna throw some serious torque down and take a few wheelies with it!
Great video! I have a "Stock" 2007 raptor 700R SE that simply will not idle good. Refurbished the top end... New valves and springs (my intake valves were bent). Lapped the new valves... Set to .10mm intake and .18mm exhaust. Since then I have bought a bunch of new parts, fuel pump, injector, coil, oil, Chevron 91 octane without ethanol, coolant, fan, almost everything... but I Cannot get this baby to idle without popping, revving up and down and dying. I have a new throttle position sensor ordered from a yamaha parts shop for a crazy $301. It should arrive this week. I wondered if I set the TPS to .68 with engine running or not. This helped me because your quad was not running at the time of your test. Thank you! I'm going to remove mine now and do your screw driver turn test. I hope it is the TPS or I am totally baffled on what to do next other than take it to a yamaha repair shop.
Hey man my raptor had this problem but the problem was oil was covering the spark plug so i changed the oil and added a little less this time and it started to work as good as new.
Wow! Mine is doing the exact problem i already ordered the tps wish me luck guys my raptor has been sitting sence 2014 haven't gone riding sence it started backfiring. Now that i think about it, it was raining that day so this has to be my problem i will be back with an update
Hey I came across your video looking for a solution to my raptors problem, maybe you could help me if you read this :) My raptor idle ist okay I would say but if I gradually increase gas it bugs down and the pics up like crazy. Do you think it is the Tps causing this problem?
Does the key have to be turned on when you test the TPS and turn it to check with the multimeter? My 06 won't idle and cuts out. So I'm gonna check the TPS, but unfortunately it doesn't have a battery.
Hey great video!! My 07 raptor starts but bogs out about half throttle.Yamaha dealer said I need to hook my bike up to diagnostic tool to set the TPS up correctly?Thanks
I have a brand new raptor. Now with 20 hours. About to have my break in service done and right now it back fires. Cranks then bang. This is the second time it’s happened. Fouled 2 plugs. Now the plug is covered in fuel
If anyone can help I have a raptor 350 runs perfectly fine when it starts up then after it warms up then just cuts out and won’t turn back on until she cools down any ideas?
Just replace my tps but still no start all fuses good someone plz help tempted to put this raptor in the fire pit...I put big gun with power commander tuned it rode one in the woods had to get push started ran fine took it home it won't start at all did the tps but I'm loss for answers
Hi I have a raptor 700 2006y...today I decided to clean the TPS sensor by wiping some residue off ...before taking it out I tested the voltage and it was around 0.67 and full throttle 4.12 When installing and setting ...the reading now shows 0.67 after adjusting it although the full throttle is now on 5.3 .....any ideas what changed or went wrong
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
Bro great video!! What were the symptoms of your raptor before replacing the TPS?? My raptor runs fine, Idles fine. Drives fine. As soon as I rev it up on any gear...it cuts out for a second then catches its momentum again. any solution guys ???
It's Alive! T.P.S. sensor? I would've never Guessed it. This is what I enjoy about you tube, The wealth of information available that we can share. Great vid & info. My Dogs give the same look when I'm unpacking something, lol. I see those Bear claws on that 700 & like that look. I'm still on the fence on the Gbc xc master or the Bear claws or the new bear claw Evo that's suppose to be geared for sport riding & lighter rotating mass.
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.
I think this is my problems I was riding my raptor yesterday and it just shut off not locked up or anything valves set still just turns over does the same thing yours does
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
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
will this make it foul lug often bc sometimes i go to start mines in morning it crank u fine then shut off and i go back to crank it it backfire and just spend and when i put ne plug in cranks up
@@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
My raptor 700r cuts out at high RPM. does anyone have any solution for this? Idles fine. Drives fine. As soon as I rev it up on any gear...it cuts out for a second then catches its momentum again. It feels like it runs out of fuel for a second even thou I heard I may be too rich.
@@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
I have a raptor 700 and it has a fault like when the spark plug fails but that's not it, I already checked, I changed the tps sensor and it still fails the same, when I turn it on it works fine then when it warms up it starts to jerk and there comes a point where when I put the gear in it doesn't advance, what can be?

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

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.
That tps u ordered is for 08 throttle body
right! i heard they leak less?
