Why does my Harley Davidson stall at a stop sign?
After I’ve been riding for awhile and the engine warms up it will idle stronger and is usually fine, but once in awhile when I start from a stop sign or light it will stall and I’ll have to give it some throttle to start and idle up. Of course it never does it when the dealer has it.
Why does my Harley Davidson engine stall at idle?
If the battery will start the bike, it is not the reason the engine stalls at idle. You may have a dirty IAC (Intake Air Controller). They get gummed up and will cause stalliing, especially on a warm engine. There is self help tip on how to clean it. Sounds like intake leak if it wants to stall after warm up.
What to do when your Harley starts stalling?
Start the bike cold. Mist the intake flanges with brake cleaner. If your bike’s idle drops, or the engine stalls, you have an intake leak. If this is the case, replace the intake seals along with the front & rear intake flanges. If the bike passes the intake test; have the dealer or your mechanic scan the m/c for possible codes.

It sometimes is fine for the rest of the ride. Any Ideas? Check for trouble codes. A failing sensor will often “act up” when warm/hot.
