noel_lemansII 7 Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 Hi Grim, I know I'm late to the party but FWIW my '02 Scura would backfire then spit off the RH inlet rubber after 100 miles. Replaced the inlet rubber & issue resolved, even found the low fuel light works as I now get 180 miles per tank. Rgds. Noel 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Noel Thanks Noel, I did infact replace both inlet rubbers during my troubles! someone on a facebook group kindly donated them to me to see if it helped. Looking at the originals, they were cracked but definately not all the way through, so probably ok... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The effect on mine were dramatic & defo the cause of my issue. Rgds. Noel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Solution Grim 85 Posted March 23 Author Solution Report Share Posted March 23 Whilst it didn't solve it, it did give me peace of mind that I could rule them out, plus the old ones would have ripped eventually. What fixed it was re-setting the TPS, balancing the throttle bodies, then balancing air using air screws and a with vac gauge at 3k. Runs lovely now. Except I haven't ridden it during lockdown so I can't enjoy it! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
