Re: wtf is a ect sensor?
was the bike running fine before and this just happened out of nowhere? Why don't you just try changing the sensor out? The pcm uses the coolant temp sensor to set things like startup timing and idle. Without any intial reading from the sensor it's very possible that the pcm won't let the bike start. Though i wouldn't necessarily say that's definetly the problem, i broke off the coolant temp sensor on my car and it started fine so who knows.

how do the plugs look? if any doubt at all try new plugs, sometimes plugs foul and wont fire under compresion but will fire in open air. Also, The ect is a corection imput for the fuel injection and should not affect starting capability.

p/s on chryslers the 4 cyl cars with 2.2L and 2.5L mid 80`s you got to disconect the ect to check base timming if you shut the car off and try n restart it alot of time it wont restart jus somthing to think about....i know where talking bikes here but alot of the stuff works the same way
