gk76a "coughing"
hi guys,
i'm stuck with this problem. my bike when idle, rpm dying. when headlight on, stall. sparks plug all 4 firing. i used wd40 to spray @ each pipe, smoking. i squat beside endcan listen, its as if the throttle is blipping every 2-3 secs, like a bull. fuel smell can be smelt.
rpm drop 200+, making it dying.
anybody can tell me whats wrong? 2 days ago it was like that then afternoon, back to normal again. now it comes again. actually this problem has been with my bike for months. every 3months, i changed my plugs thinking it was running rich, plugs spoilt. but just now i tested, nothing wrong...
coils just changed also. needle changed but 2nd hand, few months back.

I had the same thing with my bike cutting out when I put the lights on or the cooling fans come on. It was a coil. The volt drop causes this.
Check your's again if they were not new ones.

Re: gk76a "coughing"
Have you had the carbs checked over, it could be the "o" rings playing up and leaking air or fuel into the engine.

Re: gk76a "coughing"
Certainly sounds like the o-rings are playing up. Good luck, and keep us informed.
