Seems I have a post winter problem.
pps:
Spyder was running great in the fall when we pulled it into storage, but my man child may have screwed up. He was winterizing all the "rec" vehicles which is drain the tanks and leave the caps off. Last winter I had filled the tank and added stabilizer, come spring it fired right up and the riding began. This year it started out fine and then went to crap.
Seems Mr. RT does not like this. When I went to go on my first post winter ride I got flashing limp mode and check engine lights. Run up the revs, and it bounces around.
Get it to 1500, but walk away and then it dies.
Thought maybe man man child had not filled up the tank with high octane, or maybe had really screwed up and filled it with crap gas.
Filled up up the tank with premium and also added appropriate gas treatment, but still running like crap. Spring is here in the Midwest and I want to go on a road trip. Today's adventure is pulling codes, but the stuff is so intermitent that it may be dealer bound.
Thinking purge the tank, swap the fuel filter and start from scratch with real petrol.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
