room change
it was recommended i should bring this thread over to the evo section as there is probably more help here. so---

yea its my first post and i am on the tech forum but i am having a problem.
i have changed the cam to an andrews v-23, added reinhart true duals and had the intake ports on the heads cleaned up, not hogged out. i did all this with the intentions of putting a mild power tuner on it. guess i should of done my homework first. i can't find a power tuner for this yr injected that has a brand name to it.
the bike had sat for 3yrs in climate controlled space and when i got it out it ran like crap, high revs at idle, stalling and running rich on re-start. i have had it for 18yrs with no real issues and figured i would beef it up a bit for the giggle factor. after cleaning the whole fuel system and doing the mods it still runs like crap and i can't find an mild upgrade for the tuner.
what do ya's figger. any help appreciated. rick

A buddy of mine had this issue with his efi. He took it to the dealer several times and they never fixed it. He ended up putting a CV carb on it.

I have a 1996 FLHTCUI, and to use the Power Commander, I had to have a 97/98 ECM, and it works good.

Welcome ... up-yours.
There are many efi mod. kits available but you need to get the motor running right before you get into all that.
Question ... you state you have " cleaned up intake ports and valves " .?
What did you do in regards to the valves ?

not a real option
if i can't get it working proper i will probably convert it back to stock original specs and just ride it. i am just trying to give the bagger a little shot to wake it up a bit.
thanks for the lead though. rick
