Loping idle

After adding/changing:

dp full termi ecu
dp air box lid
leo vince cat
leo vince slip ons
Power comander V

I have an idle that dances in between 1200 and 1000, any one else experience this and is this a simple air bleed fix ?

If so any one know the a/f ratio i would be looking for at idle ?

P.S. I did rest the TPS and calibrate the TPS for the PCV

I got the same results after installing similar parts. I had mine dyno tuned and it seemed to get a little better, but it still lopes at idle. I also still have an occassional problem.............the bike will die if I blip the throttle quickly after pulling in the clutch. I also think mine is running a little rich since I get more soot on my exhaust tips than before. I am not sure it is related, but could be. I am gonna take it back to the shop and have them look at it again.

Out!

its the nature of these newer ducatis i believe ever since all the euro 4 crap went into effect.the dp ecu and proper tuning will do it for the most part but u will still get ocational rpm climbing and stalling

My idle has been rock solid at 1300 RPM for almost a year with DP slip on ECU, DP airbox lid, BMC filter, Leo Vince Cat Eliminator and Leo Vince exhaust... thanks to the magical touch of Bill Himmelsbach at Eurosports in Coopersburg, PA.

peter can advise in more detail how to adjust the co mixture, but in meantime have the air screws in the throttle bodies adjusted, after the bike has warmed up to operating temp.

loping idle after mods is lean at the throtle body fuel screws. try turning them slightly richer (out I think) while the bike is idling.

mine does this too. it will crank for ages unless i blip the gas. had it checked on dyno, still did it after a TB sync etc and was told by the garage (not a dealer) that its common with the multis too. its fine when its warm so I've given up caring. had it dynoed and it was ok. its now a bit better after removing the airbox.

Air bleed screws turned out will make it leaner. You have a lot of variables that are undefined, like the ECU trim and PC V map. I have the same setup minus the PC and mine runs perfect. The idle will get a little lumpy for a very short time as the bike warms up, then its smooth. I'd get it running right with just the DP ECU first before adding the PC.
