| I cannot comment on other YS 9SR's, but touching the backplate the sensors do not work with my engine. I've tried two sensors and no matter how many times I turn the crank, they always sense the crank pin twice when it passes by if the sensors are touching the backplate. I even tried moving the sensors to all four positions around the backplate. When the limiter is activated with the sensors touching the backplate, it does not work (that's with two different sensors and two different receivers [on the same engine]). When I pull the sensor away from the backplate it works perfectly and the limiter functions as expected.
They may work on other's YS engines when they touch the backplate, but I can state without doubt that the two sensors I have will not work properly on the engine in my Aurora if they are touching the backplate.
My only point is this, if it works for you touching the backplate, then fine. But, if you, like me, find that it doesn't work that way, try leaving about a 1/4 cm gap between the sensor and the backplate. It may or may not work for you, but it is the only way either of the two sensors I have will work properly with this particular engine. |
The gap worked for me too. I guess it might be a case by case basis, but it's an option for those that may have trouble. I ended up with my endpoints being similar to creightoncarr's.
