Hello, all....
My until-now trusty 94 K1100LTSE (58K miles) has just begun stumbling after running 50 miles or so. I recently won the battle of bringing the ABS back to life, but during the proof-of-principle test ride through rural Maryland, rolling on the throttle resulted in a sudden roughness, with a return of power after rolling it back. The engine remained rough-running until shutdown, and after replacing my fuel filter, it ran ok .... until I pulled off a long straight and was proceeding up a secondary hill in 3rd gear. Problem same as before.
I remembered the tech at Bob's in Balto observing that my breather return was oily, which I did nothing about at the time. I have a new breather tube on order, but after a fairly thorough look at various forums, I think I am looking at a complex fault tree to sort through.
That said, I want to cut to the chase in the most efficient and inexpensive manner.
My plugs were recently renewed, new air filter before parking last season, and I am now running a tank of techron-enhanced goodness.
What would the collective Brick Universe do now?
