    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Skip pop at idle on cyl 2-3

Ok so my issue is this. I have a skip pop only on cylinders 2-3 at idle then on all 4 in low throttle and then it opens up hard core at mid throttle and then skip pop returns mostly on cylinders 2-3 at high throttle. I have dyna s, custom minimal wire harness, jetted carbs, open 4-2 popes, pod filters. Timing is good, ignition timing is ok and all cylinders are firing and coils working...

Any ideas on solution to skipping popping
 
"....all cylinders are firing and coils working... "

probably not all the time, cuz this sounds like electrical problem! How about telling us the bike model/year?
Did you do these mods or someone else?
 
Put a holy baffle in your popes and you might get some divine tuning. Welcome to the forum.
 
Valve clearance should be the first step. If you haven't already, check the intake boot flexibility and O-rings. A complete carb rebuild with new O-rings is in order (24 hr. in carb dip) if you don't know the condition. I would highly recommend a good baffle with the good wrap in the 4-1 pipes. Besides being obnoxiously loud, they tune a lot better if you use them as designed, and a 4-1 has a good sound with the baffle. When my V&H baffle took off for the weeds, the replacement was only something like $23.00. Guess who drills the bolt and wires it now.
