Default Miss firing

We've finally resolved the issue on the 1995 harley ultra classic Electra glide missing on one cylinder. Not electrical. It's the weirdest thing The plastic back plate that holds the carb on has 2 bolts that goes into the engine. These bolts goes through 2 metal sleeves which create pressure to tighten the plastic back plate and hold the carb in place. After 30 years of vibration the rear one was slipping and allowing the carb to slip off the manifold inlet. No one at harley anywhere it all pointed to leads plugs coil valves compression etc . Quite proud of myself So I'm hunting for a new back plate for her but in the mean time she's running sweet Keep you posted.
