Hi Guys,
I've been having a problem recently with my K1 Busa dropping a cylinder or two.(Feels like it anyway). It happened after I washed it and feels like she's dropping a cylinder between 1.5k-4k RPM. Above 4k it fires OK. She runs OK for 2 minutes until she starts worming up and then it starts to misfire.
I'm guessing it's water getting down into the ignition coils/plugs. The plug holes are not blocked. This has happeded twice in the past and changing the plugs fixed it, however this time it's here to stay. I changed the plugs and it's still doing it :-(
I'm starting to think it's a damaged ignition coil, but I pulled them all and they are measuring within spec on the primary and secondary terminals. I don't want to go and buy a set of coils until I'm sure this is the problem(they are €120 each times 4). So I guess I'm just wondering:
1. If anyone else has seen this problem after washing?
2. Is it possible something else non-coil related is causing this?
3. Any suggestions on the best way to debug it?
Any help would be much appreciated guys.
Thanks
Tony
