Ok,
so now that I got the starter issue sorted out a new problem has surface, when cold the bike (88 fxr) will start great but when it warms up it starts to run like (EDITED), missing bad and when I ride it it bogs then catches then bogs right out again. I had a harley tech who is a friend check and adjust my push rods and he seems to think my ignition module has (EDITED) out (crane single fire module in cone, w/ single fire coil and wires) he says these are known to fail when in the cone due to heat. My plugs are new but they look pretty bad if I let it run like this long, the front is all black and the rear looks like it is running hot. I swapped out another set of harley plugs and same thing. I was messing around with the wires leading from the module to the coil(I think) and with it idling like (EDITED) by wiggling the wire bundle I got it to smooth out a couple of times but when I undid the wire ties and tried to isolate out a bad wire I could not duplicate it. I was about to order a dyna single fire 2000i module which I've been told is better suited for the heat in the cone when my friend the harley tech told me it could also be my charging sys causing this since I have a draw when the bike sits. I tested my charging voltage at the battery at idle and got a solid 12.67volts normal?? Needless to say I am a little overhwelmed right now and could use some advice. I don't really have the money to be throwing $200 darts at this time.
