Thank you but I ordered the kit from Spyder Boyz and they refunded it after I shipped it back. I've heard good things about your products and I'm looking forward to using more of them as we get into...

It was scheduled at the shop for brake bleed and rear tire. They said the codes were coming from the fact that the fuel lines were falling apart. Not sure how but codes are gone and they replaced...

Ok, I'll try that. The smell is like a carbon monoxide smell but amplified if that makes sense.

Everything was running great when it was apart but after changing the oil and reassembly now I'm getting the P1172 code. It's intermittent flashes on the bottom screen so I'm hoping a vacuum line is...

I was afraid that might be the case and I didn’t just temporarily fix it. I’ll look at it and see. It’s on the front left if that helps.
I did unplug most of the connectors I could find and put...

Engine roughness - loosing power... The results!

This is the results thread from my other thread about letting my Spyder sit too long and what I thought created engine problems. After the...

My shipping was free (pick up locally) because I have an account with them. Its an option if you're a pilot or if you visit an aviation parts store. Just ask someone at your local small airport.

I found an option for our spark plugs to meet the Wacker P-12 thermal paste replacement.

Use at your risk but it appears it has the same properties. Some of my pilot peeps use it on the Rotax...

This is what they gave us (more of the same oil in box not shown).

I want to order magic mirrors on next order.

The local shop said they use anti seize and dielectric compound on...

I'm going to post anything I do from here forward. I have the oil so I'll post it before I do anything. Probably getting the plugs in tomorrow, just need to stop by the shop and get my torque...

Ok, I'll get these plugs in and get the codes. Reset the ECU.

The battery is a Motobatt AGM that's just over 3 years.

For giggles here's the unremarkable scope...

Ok, the plugs I have shown my wife picked up when we first started having the problem out of a guess so we will have to source the silicone and thermal paste (I wonder if it's the same silicone at HD...

Bert, I meant the bit of white stuff near the electrode but good to know it’s not anti seize lube.

Yeah the new plugs sound better.

At 10k miles I didn’t expect that much black on them. Do...

Spark plugs look ok I guess. 204480.
I’ll just clean off the excess anti-seize or maybe put in the new ones I have.

What was the fix?

Is that a different manual than the one from Service Manual Warehouse?

They sold me ignition wires and this doesn’t have a traditional coil and wires. I didn’t post the pic.

There’s a collection of nuts or seeds in there so I’m not sure how this bike was...

Ok, what am I looking at here. I expected to see spark plugs and ignition wires. ��

I would like to look at the plugs just to rule out the easy things. I assume it’s here.

Doug, i wasn’t going to go any deeper than I did on removing parts of the bike but the more I took off the more missing screws I found. So I have the air boxes off so I can see the plugs and fuel...

Thanks Bert. Yes the thread did wonder for a bit because I had to let the bike sit even longer and never got to do anything that was suggested. I had some great losses and I lost attention on the...

Dang Bert, why the hostility? You live in a beautiful part of the country and have a couple bikes which I assume are running and your not working on them in 105 degree heat.

Are you saying don't...

CopperSpyder, what's up with the vacuum line? To save you some reading it's a 2014 RT with about 10,000 miles. Some of the exposed fuel lines were cracked and I've replaced the cracked line and...

Well, it's still running like poop. Feels like a cylinder isn't firing. I has no power and even sounds like a cylinder is missing.

So I'm thinking about taking it the rest of the way apart so I...

I got the fuel filter in and the 2” long line replaced but I noticed the 1/4” return line is cracked too so back to O’Riely’s (unless it has a special fitting and needs to be sourced from Can-Am). ...

Ok, my Autozone is garbage but the O’Reilys came through. And it’s SAE 30R14T2
204422

Not sure if they gave me high pressure line

204421

There is a small 2” piece of hose between the filter and the “y” and that’s the one that is cracked. I’m at Autozone now. I’ll run in and grab some fuel injector line.

Seems like my other post disappeared. Thanks Bert, I'll be going through everything. I've got half the bike apart and decided it's too much to pull apart just to put new plugs and borescope. It...

Bert, it looks like this photo204417
