Default 05 Ultra issues
I have an EFI '05 Ultra Classic that is having some weird issues that have me a bit baffled. It likes to backfire when I start it, will sometimes cut out while I am riding at low rpm's, will also backfire when gearing down to a stop and today it stalled and acted as if it were flooded. It had a very strong odor of fuel as when I was trying to get it restarted. Again, this is an EFI model. It has a set of Vance and Hines on it and I wonder if maybe the previous owner didn't have the system re-mapped after he installed them. Any thoughts???
