Default coughing and sputtering

Hey there, we have an 02 roadking that is sputtering and coughing through the air cleaner. We installed new injecters and there are no leaks anywhere. We don't have a digitech. I know about the 50 run/stop cycle to reset the ecm. We need the bike to stop coughing at idle. Will this help? Any input would be geat appreciated. Thanks.

You can purchase a code reader from HD ~ $150.

You may have an intake leak, a bad head temp sensor, a bad crank sensor or a faulty throttle position sensor.
