Default 2001 Road King

The bike that I bought has been sitting a while. I replaced the fuel injectors and the fuel pump and the plugs due to real bad gas. My problem is this--it idles real rough and shoots flames out of the Induction Module Assy. When I pump the throttle and get it to a higher RPM (2500) it runs like a raped ape. I took it on the road and it will not run properly at a low RPM--burping and spitting. Whats up??? TPS???

Same problem here, your advice is very appreciated since I live in Bosnia and we have no H-D dealership/service over here.

Hope someone will read this and will be able to help.

Thanks in advance.

I'm no engine mechanic but I take it you don't have a carb. When you replaced the fuel pump, did you replace the whole EFI? and all the wires/fuel lines?

you may have built up sludge in your intake too.

throttle may need to be oiled

a whole bunch of things could be the issue for high revs (EFI's need computer tuning)
