Hey!

Just rebuilt a 2004 trx450es from the bottom end up. New crank, bearings, clutch weights, bored head, new oversized piston and rings.

I rebuilt the engine using a Honda Service Manual, followed each step to the tee, double and triple checking, (no extra parts either!)

I installed the engine on the weekend. I fired it up and it runs great. However, when I try to shift it in gear it catches for a split second then nothing. So I have a running engine with no driveability.

I do get an error code 8 flashes, angle sensor, in the es module.

Did I mess something up with the clutch/ tranny? anyone else have this problem b4?

Any help will be greatly appriciated. I really don't want to pull th eengine again [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

Hi,

Any Honda Mechanics out there that can help with this problem?

Thanks!

 

First I would take the clutches off and go thru the gears shifting by hand ..
