I've got the air box and fender section "B" installed now. Getting the middle section of the air box in and out was extremely challenging, and I bent the metallic front brake cable where it routes down to the ABS doing it. I wonder if Magnus experienced the same difficulty. I noticed he left the rear air box section pushed back into the frame, where I removed mine (I believe removing the rear wheel opened up a lot of extra space). Magnus also completely removed the fwd section of the air box, where I unscrewed mine from the throttle bodies and pushed it aside.
I cannot detect any damage to the old IACV, and I am praying that after all this work the new IACV cures this problem. I plan to inspect my valves this Saturday, and if they don't need adjusting I should be able to complete everything and fire it up.
Thanks again for all the great support from everybody.
Dave , you did heck of a job for all the Forum members, plus bonus goes to you, cuz automotive is not your field = needles to say well done.
If there is no one nearby to exam removed IACV, I can offer my "expertise*" (will take some time) and I'm willing to pay up-to U$20 S&H cost.
Let me know, so can pm you my address (Canada)
*bench test, mechanical and electrical, will not install
