hi just looking for some info.. got a 05 softail twin cam 88. when im running under 30 mph and at idle the carb makes a popping sound and shuts the engine off. it happens on almost every trip. dont know what to look for.... it has 6000 miles on it???? slip on screamn eagles
Need some more info
Do you have an air cleaner on it ?
Have you messed around with the carb? taken it apart, etc.
Has it done this since you bought the bike or only after you have made a change?
I baught the bike last year and it did it from day one.. it has a cleaner and about 6500 miles on it. i baught it used with 2000 miles on it...not sure what it could be... im new with harley since riding triumph
also possible it has an air leak causing a lean condition. the air leaks are usually were the carb goes on the manifold or where the manifold bolts to the heads. some times the rubber gaskets can get pinched or dislodged keeping them from sealing.
