Morning fellow Tiger Pilots.
So after the umpteenth occasion of the bike not idling due to excessive dust build up on the stepper motor i officially stripped my moer.
As you know, you gotta strip down plenty bodywork to get to the thing, ok, its always good to give the airfilter a clean, but never the less.
I went to Builders and got a can of "Wynns - Carb Cleaner", the can comes with a lekker long thick yellow tube to use as a nozzle.
Take a lighter and heat the yellow tube, about 15mm from the end, whiles its a bit soft, bend it (i used a AA battery) around, not a full 90 degree's but almost.
You now have a perfectly capable cleaning device that reaches right in and cleans that little farkker up with two or three squirts.
The Crab Cleaner is non aggressive and solvent free, so no stress on damaging the unit.
It took me two proper blasts, one form above, one from below, bike back to her sweet idle in a matter of seconds :thumleft:
Did i mention i love my Triumph :ricky:
