Hi All,
I have a 6 year old 883 Sportster that was stage 1 tuned about 4 years ago. Over the past couple of months of riding It's started to missfire at low speeds and has even cut out on me on one occasion. When I open it up It runs fine, but starts spluttering and missing as I slow down. I've tried a branded fuel cleaner and some new plugs to no avail. Has anyone any suggestions of how I can solve the problem?
I just read a bunch of post on missing.
ball park, could be fuel filter, plugs, plug wires, bad gas, air filter, to start with.
Post this same ? in the sporty area, U'll get a lot more looks and answers.
Also try doing a search on it,, U'll get a lot of info from one.
Welcome to the Forum and safe riding.
