suddenly loosing RPMs on longer hills
Posted: Fri Jun 07, 2019 3:31 pm
RH with 300 miles. 6G rollers, heavier spring, and Prima exhaust. Stock jetting but I live at 6,000'
Was going great up the hills, while the speed would slow to maybe 20mph, the RPMs stayed fairly high. Now over the last few days, the longer 1/2 mile hills about 6% grade, it is now loosing revs and the speed has fallen dramatically. Almost to the point of not making it to the top. Runs strong on mild grades.
Plug looked fine and I put in a new plug. Cleaned out the jets and put new gas in it. Does rev sort of high at 8600 with current setup.
Initial acceleration is slow so I may try going down on pilot jet given my altitude but that shouldn't impact my current problem.
