kids gone for a rare visit to their mums for a day or 2 so thought i would pop out on the 550 and strike a pose. Got as far as the end of the road and turned back
Doesnt seem to be firing that well on 1 and 4 as the headers were not as hot as the middle 2. Thinking maybe coil ?
Will try and have a look tommoz.

Well...swapped the coil over for one i had sitting on my plentiful spares shelf
and no difference. Poked about a bit with a multimeter, pretending i knew what i was doing. Didnt find anything i could make any comment about. Thought i would have a look at my fuel filter and decided to take it off as i have never been happy with the way it sat and also thought it wasnt flowing enough fuel coz it was never full up with petrol
Anyway, lo and behold she fired up on all 4
however.............she did cut out a few times and i think i may have a loose connection somewhere.
as during all of this i checked a plug to see if it was sparking...and it wasnt
Will have another poke around tomoz if i can.
