I'd be surprised if its an injector issue its more a throttle body issue I think ...sounds a vacum leak possibly...maybe something dryed up..or sticking... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did notice that at 4k it has a noticeable growl from the induction its not at any other rpm just 4k so just wondering it that could have anything to do with it as a culprit of something not being quite right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we’re doing guesses, I’ll bet it’s a plug or an ignition cable Looks like a nice Sunday morning ride. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 A coilpack would also explain the random non starting after having warmed up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could well be plugs, I'll take them out tonight and gap them and give them a clean up, but it's on my list of things to get on with this evening since yesterday I gutted the garage out and organised it so I can now get around the bikes and get to my tools so that is a plus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol..nothing is impossible...but you would definitely be feeling it missing under load...if it was a spark problem... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it does miss but mainly when it's up to temp so could well be fouled plugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a hesitation as low rpm and the throttle response is quite snatchy, so I'll have a check over the plugs/leads and airfilter tonight and clean things up abit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
