More than likely his website was shut down due to my action against him. I politely and asked him many times to make things right with me and he continually lied and sidestepped.

Yep. I gave him many months to make it right with me and all I got was the runaround. Turned it over to my banks fraud department. Advertising goods and taking money when you don’t have them is fraudulent misrepresentation and his website is a fraud As is he.

As a follow up.......this guy has given me the run around for 2 months. I ordered per his instruction a rebuilt motor and have yet to see a tracking # just a bunch of bullshit. I’d say he is running a fraudulent website taking substantial money for parts he does not have. Reporting it as fraud on Monday and will get credit card company fraud division after him. What a letdown and really pisses a person off somebody is facilitating fraud in that way. He personally told me to make the payment which I did and the engine would be shipped within a week. What a douche bag.

I just found it strange he was very available and informative pre-order and than immediately became unavailable. Requested either a shipping invoice or refund and have already started process for claim if either of those isn’t forthcoming.

OK. That is good to know. Hard to tell as there are some very serious claims online concerning his business. I’m not talking about a $20 part but a substantial purchase and got very concerned after making the order and finding those claims.

Buying from Silver bullet like sushi at a truck stop? Over the years seeing him on this forum I assumed he was legit but now I am seeing lots of negative feedback. Selling engines you don’t have and taking money on a website for false inventory is fraud. Not sure if that is the case or not but getting sinking feeling it might be the case after making an order yesterday and getting no follow up or response immediately to my calls for clarification. Anybody with experience?

Thanks for input. Will check compression again. Was good not long ago. What is cost for a rebuild? Do you have rebuilts in stock with core charge? Hopefully that’s not the issue but we will see. Still interested if anybody knows what the plug is.

2009 Joyner T4: Starts fine when it is warm but in cold weather won't start. Turns over fine but won't fire. I read somewhere there are 2 sensors for coolant temp that ECU reads to adjust air/fuel. Once warmed up it starts easily and runs great. TPS and IAC both good and cleaned air temperature gauge on side of intake. I noticed this connector and don't see which sensor it hooks to. Engine compression is good. This connection is Left side of engine in wiring bundle and it has power when I turn ignition on. Red/White and Green/White wires. Where does it connect anybody know?. Thanks!

I have a 2008 rear differential off of a Joyner T4 that I sent in to Lenny which he installed his upgrade kit in. It is for sale now on Ebay. Steve K.

Thanks.

Anybody know where I can get a rebuild kit for my Joyner T4 1000 engine? Thanks. Steve

From Billings, MT, filter is a K&N style out of dirt with sleeve, I suspect engine was dusted before I got it. Where can I find an engine rebuild kit? Will watch it, but think that is indeed the case. (Yes, that is the case......thank you all for the help trouble shooting)

OK, I will check compression again cranking it 5 plus, don't remember how many cranks I did. I put a snorkel on up and out of the dust, but the same filter. Bigger filter? Not enough air? Have a feeling I need a rebuild. Suggestions as to who to send to? Where to get rebuild kit? Thanks.

Not 140-150. They were 75, 125, 90, 90.

We'll see what happens after it has sat for awhile and cold.

Compression good. Disconnected the IAC and tapped on the throttle body, injected starting fluid and floored it while starting. Took a bit but started and once warm runs fine. Starts fine warm as well. I think the timing might be the issue. I will search this site for timing check and adjustment info or if somebody has a link please post. Thanks a bunch. Steve

Lenny, I just posted my starting problem and what I have done to trouble shoot it on a separate post. Not sure what to do next.

OK. I have read most of the posts on here concerning this issue and have tried about everything. Checked: Fuel Delivery-Has full fuel tank, fuel pump fine, good pressure, fuel at injectors good Spark-Good spark at all 4 spark plugs Sensors-Disconnected blew out all connections, tried starting by disconnecting IAC, Oygen Sensors, Fuses-All fuses are good Any ideas? It is getting fuel and spark should fire. Lacking air in the cylinder? Something stuck shut? Earlier it was starting hard then ran fine once warmed up. Occasionally would surge at idle to about 3000 RPM, I shut off and would reset and idle fine. Adjusted idle with idle screw to 900 RPM and ran fine just hard starting when cold. Starter fluid does nothing.

Good link Zeb, can't read chinese but sure helps with id'ing sensors. On the Throttle Body the 3 prong sensor appears to me to be the Throttle Position Sensor, so the 4 prong on the TB must be the Idle Air Control I am thinking.

I got it from another source as well it is the blue wire. Good work. Thanks.

What is the IAC? Is it the sensor located at the bottom of the throttle body? Idle Air Control? Having surge problem and wont' start problem. Anybody have a diagram of the various sensors and what is what? Thanks. Steve

Got it figured out from your picture I think. IAT/MAP sensor is attached picture with 4 wires above the fuel pump on air intake. Which of the wires would be the IAT signal wire? yellow or the purple/red ?

Hmmm. Location of the Air Temp Sensor is upper portion of air intake towards the front near distributor? Looking on diagram thought that was it but thinking it might not be the IAT. Thanks!

Can anybody tell me which wire (Red, Pink, or Blue) is the signal wire for the IAT? Thanks!

Right on. Thanks a bunch. Steve
