02 Electra Glide issue
02 Electra Issue. The other morning I put premium gas in the tank before tanking off to bike week. Just put a gallon in to get me to meeting place with the other riders and was going to fill up there. About 10 miles down the road, bike starting spitting real bad, jerking and check engine light came on.
Had to putt all the way back home. Stayed running with no jerking in all gears as long as I kept it in between 1500-2000 RPMs. Anything below or above the jerking started and wanted to stall out.

when I bought the bike the trip reset button was broke, never fixed it so I cant check for codes. I was going to replace fuel filter, pump, and everything inside tank but figured I would start here and see if anyone experienced same thing.

You really want to pull the codes somehow, that will point you in the right direction. Otherwise you are just guessing and throwing parts at it. Someone else could have had similar symptoms but not the same problem.
Good luck.

I'm guessing that a dealership's one hour(?) charge for a diagnostic plug in would be less expensive that many of the parts that you might just throw at it.
That said, if the spitting/jerking is related to throttle position (Does throttle position vary anything?) then that's where I'd look first. (My '00 Road Glide did that and throttle position sensor was the problem, but you have a Delphi system where mine was Magnetti Marelli.fyi)
