[QUOTE="Henchman, post: 509252, member: 5966"] So I'm riding along a couple of weeks ago and stop at a light. When I go to take off, all of a sudden I've got greatly reduced power. I've got to get the revs way up to keep it from stalling when I'm trying to get moving. Then, wham, I've got full power. This go/nogo keeps happening all the way home. Did a forum search and came up with the three top/easiest fixes, TPS, plugs and TBS. Did the TPS diag, no dead spots. At about 4500 mi. on my '07 I needed to do plugs and TBS anyway, so I ordered The Morgan Carbtune and some iridium plugs. Stuff finally came, I pulled the plugs and this is what I found: [IMG]https://i472.photobucket.com/albums/rr82/hydropete/DSC04572.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i472.photobucket.com/albums/rr82/hydropete/DSC04571.jpg[/IMG] Any ideas? Is this a loose plug? Would this have caused my problem? I changed the plugs and did the TBS, took er for a ride and did not have any problems, yet. [/QUOTE]
