Hey brain trust,
Same symptoms I've seen MANY times on the boards: can't idle below 1500 rpm without stalling, abrupt loss of power, left sided pops and less engine noise. I refuse to go back to the dealership and lose $500 and three weeks of summer riding.
I swapped out the plugs on cylinders 1 and 2, no change, and I'm running a little rich.
I was prepared to shotgun (bought a compressor), but had to order a security torxx bit. Battery charged to 13V. My questions.
1) I read lvlhead's guide MANY times, but does the engine need to be ON for any of the shotgun?
2) COPS: what are the advantages, and is there an easy way to check if my spark plug wires are bad?
3) I drained my carbs, and it looked like below. Thoughts?
4) A colleague said I should pour some Sea Foam in and run it on the highway; does this have ANY effect on a clogged PAF circuit?
Everything I know about engines is from this forum, and to a lesser extent, from my service manual. Thank you in advance
