After the drive on my days off last week, I thought Id take the PW to work this week. Tuesday I went to work and dropped off all my gear and bedding for my shift. Around lunch time, I left the shop and headed home to get it and drive back to work.
Started it up, let it warm up for a bit and then started out of the driveway. It was sitting and sputtering a little, but not more than usual when its cold for the first 10-15 mins. I got to the corner, and started to accelerate. BANG! A huge back fire and then when I went to shift into fourth, it had no power, couldnt go in fourth without stalling. It took me 20 minutes to get back to my house, which was only 1/2 mile away by now. Spitting and sputtering and back firing the whole way, and wanting to stall if I didnt have my foot floored on the throttle. Parked it in the driveway and went back to work with my tail between my legs. Was bragging to everyone at work that I was gonna bring it and show it off.
So...... Im thinking timing?
Raining pretty hard today, so I cant do much on it, and next week Im in training monday thru friday.
