Hello, I have a problem with my machine running on one cylinder only when it is under load climbing or when it is idling. riding on a trail seems to run good but still not perfect. Lots of compression,reed valves are good, power valves are good,plug caps wires and coil is good. Anyone have any simular experiences or have any ideas what it could be?

The only idea that I would have is to post your problem is the right section. your not going to get much help in the "Introduce Yourself" section
But welcome to the site and enjoy!

Get rid of Champion plugs to start (use NGK). Your spark plug caps may need to be rethreaded into high tension wire by cutting off half an inch and getting into the good stuff. Normally the spark plug caps unscrew counter-clockwise and you can cut off a piece of the wire and rethread the cap on. Problems solved usually. Sometimes it is wise to start with new caps as they get loose on the spark plugs.
