running rough, any ideas ?

Postby rab » January 24th, 2010, 11:36 am

started running rough today after a 30 min run home from riding trails .. usually sweet as hell but felt like it was running on 5 cylinders(is running on 6 just feels like 5), but checked all plugs and all getting strong spark and no untoward noises (tappets/valve train etc).. plain weird.. any idea's ? are there any common issues ? it never misses a beat and starts off the button first hit every time no matter how long its been sitting.. :scratch:

any ideas on sensors or what may cause this ?

i would suggest a vaccum leak, check the hose to the map sensor.

actually turned out to be a broken blade on viscous fan ! was making it unbalanced and causing the bibration... strange but true !
