Why does my Evo run like it only hits one cylinder?

Why does my Evo run like it only hits one cylinder?

It runs like its only hitting on one Evo cylinder sometimes, but all of a sudden it will start running fine. I have had it in the shop a couple times only to have them work on carb but problem still happens. I even put a new S/S on it to see if that helped but ran good for a while and then back to same thing.

Is the EVO engine good for Harley Davidson?

As others have said the EVO engine was very durable…it was the “revival” of H-D as a company using the funds from AMF.

Are there any problems with the EVO engine?

The Evo’s don’t have heat problems, don’t have chains or belts in the timing chest that can do really bad things internally, don’t have problems with the crank, or the main bearings, don’t have problems with the comp sprocket, etc, etc. Can you tell which one I prefer? Re-reading your post I see that your scoot has only done 32k miles.

Where can I get parts for my EVO engine?

For now go to Bandit.com and follow their directions to register your EVO for their parts book. This will get you into looking at copies of Harley parts books for your year. Go to engine and oil pump and you will find the tappet screen and where it is. It will also show you how it goes back together.
