Hello everyone,

I have been having an issue with my 2007 Uly lately. I will start it up and let it warm up for a couple of minutes, get on it and be cruising along when it will sputter a little bit, then a couple seconds later it will sputter more and die if I keep giving it gas. It just stalls out while I am riding it. It will do it right around the 3500rpm range and it only does it when it is cold, usually the first half mile. I let it warm up for 15 minutes and it didn't do it at all. The last time it stalled I couldn't get it started again for a couple of minutes.

The bike has 22,000 miles on it.

I will mention the beginning of last year the fuel pump would keep priming when I turned the ignition on. I pulled it out to find chaffed wires(common problem, apparently) and I put heat shrink around them and haven't had a problem since. I am not sure if the fuel pump is finally going or not.

So any help with this problem would be GREATLY appreciated. I really don't want to take it to the H-D dealer.

Also, right before the bike stalls it will backfire and then die out. All the lights come on like if you would turn the ignition on.

I would start with a TPS reset and checking battery terminals and grounds.

my lawn mower (and Guzzi) does that when the gas cap is not venting.

I'm with Vern (etennuly) - do a proper reset procedure first, then if it's acting up start chasing ghosts.

Alright, after get screwed at the HD dealer the TPS is reset and it still has the same problem. I sprayed some carb cleaner around the intake and it was leaking. I replaced the intake manifold seals and it still seams to be sucking air a tiny bit. Could the fuel injector o-rings be bad?

Does anyone have info on replacing those?
