My 2001 is on third coil and ckp.
Make sure the pins mated good on Deutsch connector. It is easy to screw up.
Do you know for sure ckp? You can measure ac volts out of it,but it will read high if plugs out.
IF you used alphabet we would know if carb or fuel injected. I believe FLHR was carb, it was somewhat of base model cheaper bike.

not throwing codes.. I suspect a MAP sensor as it is sluggish and goes through fuel quickly when it dies start.

That's fair, carb was rebuilt and it ran fine. This happened after changing the ckp... unrelated I know, just giving a time frame.
So carb rebuild, then bike kept stalling, changed ckp, bike stopped stalling l, no problems for a while, but fuel mileage and backfiring started to appear, then it intermittently starts or doesnt.
