What kind of engine does a 2001 Harley Davidson have?
It’s a 2001 but you never mentioned if it’s EFI or carbed? It is a carb version and have checked the coil, replaced fuel, plugs and will be taking off the carb an checking jets and diaphram. Hoepfully someones advise will work!
Why does my Harley Davidson engine keep cutting out?
Check air filter.You might have a nest in there. That too, from sitting a lot water can condense inside the carb especially if you live in a humid area….the float bowl could be poluted with water buildup….that messes up everything when it comes to running smooth… Thanks Badinfluence…
Can a Harley Davidson run at low speeds?
However, since I bought it the engine is not running well at low speeds. It basically runs fine under mild/strong acceleration or at full highway speed and seems to idle normally when the bike is started.
When does a Harley Davidson engine misfire at low speeds?
However, when cruising along about 25-30 mph (in either 2nd or 3rd gear) it is always misfiring and sputtering pretty bad now (had a little hint originally and definitely getting worse now). After coming to a stop, the idle is a bit rough and sometimes the engine acts like it wants to cut out for a few seconds after which it seems to idle OK.
