    ignition control module vs ignition sensor? 07 xb12r

    i pulled the plugs and they were rich but not terrible. i soaked them in solvent and cleaned them with a wire brush until they looked brand new.

    ignition control module vs ignition sensor? 07 xb12r

    the bike has only ever died while riding once at a very long light. it was very hesitant to start back. i really didn't think it was going to start. it has only ever not started after sitting for a multiple hours . i will pull the plugs and see how they look and update you. i appreciate the help.

    i ran out to give it a go. i started the bike and let it run about 30 seconds to see if it was going to play nice.it started perfectly. during that 30 seconds i wiggled the right handlebar wires but there was no change. i shut it down pulled the cover and after touching the cps to make sure it...

    ignition control module vs ignition sensor? 07 xb12r

    thanks for the replies guys. its an annoying issue. with these intermittent problems there is rarely a eureka moment where you know its fixed. you do the repair you believe is the issue then ride it out to see if you get left stranded. im glad you mentioned the heat test for the cps. i was going...

    ignition control module vs ignition sensor? 07 xb12r

    im troubleshooting an intermittent no spark issue. I'm using a pdf ( bullmods.com) of the manual and it says it could be a bad ignition module or a bad ignition sensor. it doesn't show me the location of these parts. when i search ignition module and ignition sensor it shows me what looks like...

    New Hellfire 3.0 exhaust sneak peek!

    maybe i dont know how to read a graph any more but it looks like your xb is making 175hp? are you joking? i get that you jest in your post but before i enlarged the dyno graph i assumed it was real. how is the volume of this exhaust compared to an open header?

    buelltooth questions

    a visual inspection can tell you if a wire is broken or a connection is loose. i agree it needs to be removed and checked and said as much. im hoping it will be something as simple as a ground. as far as ive found so far there are only the two main ground locations on a firebolt. im going to...

    buelltooth questions

    i removed the front pulley cover and checked all of the plugs under there. i got side tracked momentarily when i found a large wire that appearedd to be a ground not attached to anything. after tracing it turned out to be the exhaust valve wire which has been disconnected. i checked the neg...
