[QUOTE="Bug, post: 156845, member: 3940"] After reading Dan's post, I went out to check my plugs, but my flange holder doodads made it so I couldn't get the socket on. I was flying out to Salt Lake City to pick up my family and drive them back to Denver early the next morning, so I decided to leave it until I got back. The morning after I got back, I started the bike for about 5 seconds before I realized I hadn't reconnected the wires on the right side of the bike. So I plugged them in, started the bike and rode it to work. It was idling rough and didn't seem to have the same power it did just the week before. It turns out one of the outputs from the 1-2 coil wasn't firing. I contacted Dynatek and got an RA. The agent was sure it was the s-plate instead of the coil... So I shipped the whole ignition system out there to be tested. They found the coil to be faulty and are replacing it at no cost. I just got my good parts back from them, but the replacement coil is coming from another warehouse so I'm still waiting on it. Tonights project will be reinstalling the s-plate and 3-4 coil, and I'll check out the sparkplugs (#1's going to be ugly since I rode it without that one firing.) [/QUOTE]
