Just got it firing!
hi all,
my 2016 stelvio is playing up again.
it first happened shortly after i bought the bike ,last year. it began to misfire ,more of an occasional miss and would run rich.the exhaust tailpipe was blackend. i changed the ht's , new plugs and plug caps which made no difference. eventually i balanced the throttle bodies and reset the tps and the bike ran really nice afterwords. so far so good.
the bike has run ok untill this weekend. ihave just had a trip to the north of ireland. 200miles to the ferry,50 further to the campsite....no probs.
on a run out ,moving off from stationary,the bike started to judder and shake,like it was barely running on one cylinder...coughed and died. immediate key off and restart....nope .it turned over but wouldnt fire. left it for 1 minute and it started ok. ever since then it appears to have gone back to running rich ,the occasional missfire at idle...this doesnt happen if i close the throttle slowly and dont plip the throttle . also on the run back home the engine ran really rough ,like it was miles out of balance almost felt like the big ends going ...it cant be cos i dont think it would have got me home ,300 miles,and there is no knocking noises or debris in the oil.
im going to balance the throttle bodies and reset the tps again to see if that makes a difference...spoiling a really nice bike at the moment.
anybody have any ideas ?
