Looking for some advice here. Got my S10 out from storage now that the salt is mostly washed off the roads and gave it a good go through, bearings, bakes, bolts, spokes etc. The bike ran good last fall when it was put away but not so much now.
So here's the low down, engine started and runs good at cold start, then starts to drop one cyl. and back fire out the exhaust. Just a blip of the throttle and it clears up for a bit then the same thing. Took the bike for a short spin thinking that it might clear up when good and warm. Wishful thinking, at low speed(1,2,3rd gear) eng. will back fire if the throttle is held steady. Accel or decel is fine(no backfiring). Going down the road 55-60 eng will surg up and down(no backfiring that I can hear).
Here is what I had done as of now. Suspecting bad gas I removed the tank and drained the gas and put in fresh premium non ethenal gas with sea foam. Also checked the air filter for any restriction. Air filter is good and no mouse nest to be found. Looked over any vacuum lines for cracks and leaks wiring also. Put back together and run. Got the same results. Checked batteries voltage( 13.9 at idle) and batt. is in good shape. I now suspect something electrical or possible fuel inj./ press.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
