I have a slight miss between 2800 and 3k rpm at steady throttle. Runs perfect above or below that or if I give a bit of throttle it goes away.
What should I be looking for?
Electrical miss or fuel?
Seems like spark since I know it is jetted a little rich. Runs perfect in ever other rpm range.
Intermittent electrical problems are a bitch. Does the 2,800-3,000 miss happen in all the gears, or just 5th?
Start with the simple stuff...step by step.
1) Unplug all your wire connectors, clean each side. Take the ground wire off your coils and engine, sand the connection.
Put new fuses in your fuse block.
Test
2) Next, bypass your side stand stop switch. Often a problem. Follow the wires and unplug the connector and bridge the two wires together with a jumper wire.
Test
3) Next, bypass the right handlebar run/stop switch (happened to me, ** see below)
Test
4) Next, bypass the key ignition switch (hot wire it) A jiggly key and electrical contacts can cause an intermittent electrical power feed to your ignition box.
Test
5) Next, install fresh plugs, maybe one has a cracked insulator.
Test
6) Next, ohm check the resistor plug caps, maybe one is bad.
If you have the stock FJ plug wires it is highly doubtful they are bad. They are a stranded core stainless steel wire and are very durable, however once in awhile the resistor plug caps goes bad. If you have an aftermarket carbon core RF suppressor plug wires, all bets are off, those are not as durable and the oem FJ plug wire.
Start with the above 6 and report back...and then we will go from there.
Avoid the temptation of buying new parts (except plugs) until you know what's wrong.
Hang in there....we will get it figured out.
** I had the same problem and it turned out to be a dirty run/stop switch that was causing an intermittent power interruption to the ignition box. I found this out by running a temporary jumper wire from the 12+ battery terminal directly to the ignition box, went for a ride and noticed the problem went away.
