    thanks jeff, i'm going to try to drain the carb. bowls, put the new plugs in and more seafoam hopefully tomorrow evening or over the weekend, my skills are limited but these are things i can be doing and hopefully she'll be running like i know she can, i know she won't run with my 2000 LT but she'll should run with most of 'em out there. R.T.

    hey goose, thanks for the offer, i'm down below corsicana about 40 miles in groesbeck, i would be very appreciative of your help and could make it up there at your convenience, just let me know what would work for you, late eveinings or weekends are best for me if you could work that out. thanks, bigdog1971

    sorry for the extra post guys, i forgot i did pull the rear right plug and although the plug itself looked good, it did have a little dampness? on it, i didn't think to smell it to see if it was gas as a friend had asked me but it didn't appear to be oil, i'm guessing it was gas? thanks, bigdog1971

    thanks guys for the suggestions, I'm going to change the plugs then check for the firing and the coil, the bike had been sitting for a while due to the previous owner's back problems (he said he had sta-bil) in the tank but it was running crappy when I rode it home, gave it the seafoam treatment with fresh gas and it has gotten better but still not right so I guess it and hope it's going to maybe something simple?, the stealer is wanting to do the full blown tuneup, plugs, take carbs down, clean, etc... flush out fuel system, tank, etc.... sync. carbs, the whole deal to the tune to 600.00!, i'm hoping to avoid that if it's something simple and somethng i could do myself. great forum, lots of knowledge and experience to draw from for a shade tree mechanic. i'll keep everyone updated, thanks, bigdog1971:thumbsup2:.

    help, my 02 midnight is running at about 75%, or maybe on 3 cyclinders, seems to just bog out in od if you throttle it hard and the front left cyclinder's pipe is not getting hot while running, the other 3 three are. any suggestions? I would sure like some help maybe getting the carbs sync'd. thanks, bigdog1971:think:
