What causes my fat boy to idle just fine but fall on its face back fire and try to shut down while riding

Some common causes and potential solutions: Air/Vacuum Leak: If your Harley develops a vacuum leak in its air intake system, the air-fuel mixture becomes too rich. This can cause frequent stall outs, especially after the bike warms up. Vacuum leaks often occur due to dried-out or cracked air intake boots, faulty gaskets, or worn-out carburetor seals. When air escapes from the intake system, the fuel fills the empty space in the combustion chamber, altering the air/fuel ratio and negatively impacting combustion. Severe vacuum leaks can lead to excess fuel flowing into the exhaust system, causing backfiring and stalling while riding. Clogged Fuel Tank Filter/Fuel Injectors: A blocked fuel tank filter (due to coagulated fuel, moisture, dirt, or corrosion) impairs fuel flow, resulting in a lean air/fuel ratio. On fuel-injected Harleys, clogged fuel injectors produce similar symptoms. Regular maintenance, including cleaning and inspecting fuel filters, helps prevent these issues. Faulty Cam Chain Tensioner: A malfunctioning cam chain tensioner can affect engine timing and cause stalling. Regular checks and replacements are essential to avoid this problem. Faulty Cam Position Sensor: The cam position sensor plays a crucial role in ignition timing. If it malfunctions, it can lead to stalling and backfiring. Clogged Air Cleaner: A dirty air cleaner restricts airflow, affecting combustion efficiency. Regularly clean or replace the air filter to prevent this issue. Ignition System Failure: Faulty ignition components (such as spark plugs, ignition coils, or wires) can cause misfires, backfires, and stalling. Inspect and maintain these parts regularly. Compromised Battery Terminal Connection: Poor battery connections can disrupt electrical flow, affecting the ignition system. Ensure clean and secure battery terminals. Remember that diagnosing and addressing these issues may require professional assistance. Regular maintenance and timely repairs can keep your Fat Boy running smoothly on the road.

How can I get my E bike to run 28 MPH versus the default speed?

Tip #3: Swap your motorYou'll simply want to source a motor that has a higher KV or RPM rating than your current motor. For example, if you have a 48V e-bike that travels at about 20 mph (32 km/h), you can swap on this hub motor and reach speeds closer to 28-30 mph (45-48 km/h). Aug 1, 2018

Finding specific replacement parts for toys like the Lil Rider model 80-901 can sometimes be challenging, especially if they are older models or from lesser-known manufacturers.

They might offer replacement parts or guidance on where to find them. 2. **Online Marketplaces:** Websites like eBay, Amazon, or specialty toy parts websites sometimes carry replacement parts for various toy models. Search using specific keywords like "Lil Rider 80-901 left rear motor" or "hex plate replacement." 3. **Toy Repair Shops:** Local toy repair shops or hobbyist stores might have or be able to source such replacement parts. They often have connections or knowledge about where to find specific components. 4. **Contact Retailers:** Reach out to retailers that sell Lil Rider products.

Websites or forums dedicated to toy enthusiasts could be helpful. 6. **Consider Alternatives:** If the exact part isn't available, exploring alternative components that might serve a similar function could be an option. However, this might require some modification or adaptation. Remember, when searching for replacement parts, providing as much detail as possible about the part needed, including measurements, model numbers, or any identifiable markings, can increase the chances of finding the correct component.
