engine miss on 96wdg 80ci...replaced plugs,wires,changed out gas,checked compression,checked push rods,checked coil..???? what else can i check,still missing???????????

 

Describe the miss - is it a rough idle, misfiring gently under load, backfiring/coughing/dying when you give it ANY throttle, intermittent breakup at steady throttle?

 

1st start bad miss only front cyl hitting and hot,, rear cyl cold.when riding rear cyl gets hot pops thru pipe,some backfire also,when you stop dies

 

Fuel injection or carburetor?

 

carb its clean,clean filter.............

 

What kind of ignition? stock, aftermarket? it's likely the problem..

 

everything is stock,bike only has 19k,fluids get changed more than i ride this one.....where is the ign located???? not much of a mech..

 

If it's a stock (dual-fire) ignition, switch that spark plug leads, and see if the problem follows the plug wires.

If you don't know - then tell us how many skinny wires are going to your ignition coil. If you've got 2 skinny wires, and 2 plug wires, it's a dual-fire ignition. If you've got 3 skinny wires, it's a single fire and my suggestion to swap plug wires on the coil posts won't work.

 

I had that problem, ended up being a loose positive battery cable

 

I am going with ignition too, out here in AZ in summer heat my bike still hates me. Anyone have and idea of running with ignition cover off is a good or bad idea?
