The question is when replacing coil packs is it okay just to replace one or is it recommended to change both at the same time?
All the rest is describing why I think it's possibly the coilpack, maybe something I say could signify it's something else but I dont know.
I thought the reason cylinder 3 wasn't operating was because its fuel level possibly not being right, and it sounded appropriate with what I was experiencing (idle jumping like a cylinder wanted to turn on after some revs) but even after getting them adjusted it still wasn't right.
Did a spark test more recently and cylinder 1 and 4 would shut the bike off when the plug cap was pulled, 2 would change tone but barely, and 3 would not do anything, still had a little suspicion of it being maybe fuel level but after pulling and checking all 4 spark plugs, 1 and 4 burn beautiful, 2 kindove burns, 3 smelled like fresh gas with barely even a sign of any spark going on, this sounds like a coilpack right?
Spark plugs have been changed before and again.
If you think that it may be something else, please let me know! Not afraid to test anything!
I cleaned the connections of the plug caps and also the wires that connect to the coilpack, lots of white stuff but it wasn't powdery, it may have been some anti corrosion stuff that's been there since it was made. I'm gonna turn it on tomorrow as its night and I dont wanna bother the people but if the cleaning makes the spark go through I'll say ASAP.
Also the thing sounds like @$$ right now it chops rough when idling and if u give it a rev it sounds like its pushing to do so, itll do it but roughly (I'm not sitting here doing constantly I just wanted to see how its react) also pops and backfires are going on, carbs are nice and clean just looked at the inside the other day.
OH, and this has been rode, I've had the idle shoot up from 1100 to almost 2000 before on a ride, the idle has always shot up after a bit of riding but usually to like 1500, and if I sit at a stop for a while eventually it goes back down to idle. that's why I had a suspicion of fuel level for so long but maybe it's the coil pack having a weak connection and coming in and out?
