    86 dies when wet

    I do have the Dyna ignition. I don't think that would get wet when I wash it. I'll look into your posts. Thank you

    86 dies when wet

    Hey guys. My 86 dies whenever it gets wet. Weather I wash it or get caught in the rain. After it sits for a day or two and dries out it will restart. I can't pinpoint exactly what it is. Any thoughts?

    Seems to drop cylinders

    Ok guys, 2FEAR was right. It's a coil. I swapped the coil from the wet cylinder and swapped it with one of the back ones. Now the back cylinder is wet. Where is the best placeto get one?

    Took up and down the road and killed it on the way in the driveway. Seems as though it is the right front cylinder, as that is the only plug that was wet. I will pull the coil out and give it a look see.

    I will pull them out and check them. Not sure how it would run awesome for forty miles then start doing it again though.

    I need to dig into it to see which cylinders it is. I believe it is a spark issue, but need to verify that as well.

It seems to be dropping a cylinder or cylinders. It was only doing it while puttering through town, 35-40mph. I smell a lot of raw fuel when...

    Ice and snow are when the molecular structure of..........j/k. They are fun for a couple months a year as long as you have the equipment to ride during this time. At this point,enough is enough.LOL

    bought a used kerker

    I never realized just how bad azz these things sound with a kereker on them. They should have come stock from the factory that way. It figures.... I put the kerker on on Thurs. and I get 8" of snow on Tues. Oh well.:punk:

    what tells the fuel pump to stop pressurizing

    I noticed the other day that my fuel pump kept pumping. Sometimes it does sometimes it does'nt pump for awhile. What tells it the system is pressurized? the float and needle only? I'm chasing an intermitent bad running scenario and I'm trying to narrow it down. The v-boost controller was part of...
