I was at a stop sign getting ready to go across bridge from Il to Missouri and noticed noise coming from engine and thought better get across to gas station and pull over well bike died half way across and was able to coast to gas station, trailered home and bike would start running on rear cylinder only, put in new plugs and noticed no fuel getting on plug, rear wet and front dry, check codes and got a P1353 no combustion in from cylinder (no $hit) well anywho does any one have an idy what might be going on, got good compression in both cylinders and fire but no fuel to front, motor sounded like something was coming apart before it happened, but when I start the bike on just rear I do not hear the noise I did before it died.. Good thing it didn't happen in Milwaukee week before last..

 

Test the injectors and the throttle body. TB may have **** the bed.

 

Thanks man, I will check voltage to injectors and wiring tomorrow, I believe I read somewhere should be 5vdc. If TB was bad wouldn't it mess with both cylinders?. Another thing not sure what that engine noise was before it quit.. Altho I should have seen it coming cuz I was getting allot of backfiring and the guy at fuelmoto had me add fuel at lower rpm's and help for about 200miles and started doing it again so I think you put me on the trail as to fuel injectors..
Again thanks man..

 

I take it you are using a power commander? My 08 did the same thing although no engine noise as you are describing,disconnected the power commander and engine ran fine.Fuel moto replaced the power commander after determining it was faulty.Fortunately for me it happened in my driveway.

 

I agree, unplug the PC and try it. Didn't realize you had one until your second post. Check there first.

 

A big welcome to you from sunny Southern California. Glad to have you on board.

 

Yup did that guy's bypassed pc and still same issue... Going to check wiring and injector now, will keep ya posted..

 

Trouble shooted injectors and they were working, was getting gas in rear bun no gas in front, swapped injectors and same issue, Well here is why I had compression and no gas to front cyl. to me this is a manufacure's screw up and the bike has just over 12,000 miles,Never had the cam cover off this bike.. so think it would be possible to get harley to foot the bill? I would like everything replaced due to metal, cams, bearings, oil pump lifters, pushrods..Does anyone know who I can call about this matter? the bike is out of warrenty But only has 12,00mi.

Here are pics of what happened..

 

Are those splines stripped?

 

Yeah, What splines, not sure how this happen, bearings and rest of cam in good shape, rear cam in good shape. Tightners looked new..
