From 1 to 4000rpm the bike is ok, but from 4 to 8000rpm the engine seems to loose power and after 8000rpm the power is back. The sparkplug on piston number 4 was black, so i replaced the plugs, start it again and the results was the same. Can the problem be the coil or the pick-ups?

Hi and welcome to fixya,

you can narrow down the problem by synchronizing the carburetors. Check for timing as well (use a timing light) .. It is important to time and synchronize 4 piston engines. This diagnostic check will make sure you get the most power out of your current engine configuration.

hope this helps

1978 YAMAHA RD400E NO SPARK ON ONE CYLINDER BIKE RUNS ON

Hello,

Remove both sparkplugs from engine. Plug them back in the sparkplug cables and let them rest on the engine.
Make sure your battery is well charged.
Check for sparks while kick-starting...
Interchange the sparkplugs in the cables:
-Same plug give sparks: replace the spark plugs.
-Same side of engine sparks: interchange the low-voltage connector at the ignition coils.
Give it a try:
Same engine side sparks: Replace the defective ignition coil.
Other side of the engine sparks: Check the circuit harness for loose connectors, and/or Clean-replace the breaker points ( left side of the engine carter ).

Honda 1992 XR600 miss firing

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Initially if electrical, disconnect the black/white wire from the engine stop switch, try and observe if problem persists:
  • if yes, then a loose / dirty / faulty engine stop switch;
  • if not check:
  1. 2 connectors to CDI;
  2. connector from pulse generator (black/yellow - blue/white & green/white wires);
  3. black/red wire from exciter coil;
  4. blue/yellow & green (to ground) wires on the ignition coil;
  5. sparkplug wire & cap.
Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa.

Bike starts ok runs ok when first started,when temp gets to about 80 degrees,it stalls,runs jerky,wont idle ,lack of power,could it be the T.P.S.

i think the engine oil is the problem.
because i think at above 80 degrees it is loosing its viscosity due to which the piston is slipping inside the cylinder.
change its engine oil .
