Besides having advantages, motors with injection systems are also not immune from deficiencies. The injection motor is said to be more complicated when it is on strike. It will panic motorists who suddenly trip on the motorbike on strike, moreover the motor automatic injection system panic again. But actually this situation can be overcome provided we know the cause.
Yes, the motor with EFI (Electric Fuel Injection) technology has indeed replaced the duties of the carburetor. In this EFI system, the carburetor component is even simplified to only have a gas valve without a pilot jet. While fuel is directly supplied from the tank via an injector whose spray is regulated electrically by the ECU (Electronic Control Unit). So that combustion is more efficient.
So from the advantages that's why automatic motors with injection systems will be more difficult to ignite than carburetor system motors. Then how to overcome them. Well, on this occasion we will discuss some problems and how to overcome the hard injection matic motor.
1. The motor broke down because it ran out of gas
The trivial cause of the motor strike is due to run out of gas. But indeed people assume if the injection motor runs out of gasoline it will be difficult to start. Why is that? yes EFI technology incorporates fuel pressure in the fuel line, so when it runs out there will be a sticky air into the fuel hose. This will cause the motor will be difficult to start even though already filled with gasoline. Fuel pressure is disturbed by the presence of air in the system. But there is no need to fear that the motor with the EFI system has been equipped with a system that can make air or bleeding automatically. Then how to do it? see below
- Make sure gasoline is filled
- Turn the ignition on and hold for about 4 seconds
- Then turn it back to the off position
- Perform 2 steps above until 4 to 5 times so that when the key is in the position of the Fuel Pum will pump gasoline into the channel if done in a number of times a bleeding process will occur then the air will collect at the tip of the injector.
- After the new starter and the engine will start as usual
2. Overdrawn battery
In contrast to the carburetor system motor where the battery is used only for the starter process but the motor injection system battery has a role to stabilize the motor electricity. If the battery is damaged or exchanged, the voltage will drop then it will affect the electric current in the ECU as well as the fuel pump which will also drop and the motor may strike. So make sure your motorcycle battery does not come up short if it is damaged, replace your motorcycle battery.
3. Fuel pump is broken
A damaged fuel pump can have a fatal impact on an automatic motor injection because gasoline does not come out of the injector. To check it, you just turn on the motor contact then with a buzzing sound from the tank, the fuel pump is on, but if you hear it, your fuel pum can be damaged and must be replaced.
4. Damage to one of the sensors
In the EFI system also includes sensors that function to check the situation in certain areas. This sensor will send data containing the air flow and temperature of the intake air flow. If there is damage to the sensor it will have an effect on a machine that lives imperfectly to death. Usually this problem starts from the Check engine lights that are on. To find out more clearly which sensors are broken you need to need a scanner or take it in official annoyance.
5. Exposed to flooding
Flooded motorbikes will also be difficult to ignite not only on injection motors, carburetor motors will also be difficult to ignite if submerged by floods. Water can interfere with the electrical system including spark plugs and water entering the exhaust. So what needs to be done is to remove the water.
Hopefully this information is useful, if you have additional additions about the causes and ways to overcome the motor matic injection is difficult to ignite, let's give a comment in the comments column. Just an extra so that the motor does not easily strike, use high oxygen gas because injection motors are very sensitive to the quality of gasoline overburden. Then you can heat up the motorbike in the morning before driving so that the battery is fully charged and finally maintain your motorbike regularly.
