p-1353 code on tc88

[chas]

Hi All- I have gotten the p-1353 no combustion on front cylinder code. It happens when I accelerate then it goes out after a minute or two. I have had a studder in the motor, gas milage has sucked! Last summer it was the rear cylinder that gave me problems and it was solved by cleaning the injectors. I replaced the injectors this year and the code is still there. I have changed out the plugs, wires, coil, fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator. any thoughts? I will double check the connections to see if they are tight,but besides that what else could cause a recurrence? Thanks in advance

Did you use factory stock spark plugs and plug wires? Make sure the connections are clean and tight? I've seen a loose contact between the wire & the plug, and the wire & the coil, cause this code.

Do you really have to use stock wires? I used stock plugs then changed to ngk because i thought maybe the stock plugs were not good

I have found false knock events and code producing events from aftermarket wires and plugs. The ION sense circuitry was designed for the specs of stock components, so they give the least issues.

Years back riders were using SE wires and other aftermarket wires with aftermarket spark plugs and getting codes. Stock wires and spark plugs would cure the bulk of complaints.

Nothing wrong at all with the factory spark plug wires or spark plugs. You will not see an improvement in performance running aftermarket parts.

Low Compression is often due to a spark plug that is not properly torqued.

I tried a set of Accel 8mm/ 300+ ferro spiral core..PN 175098 silly cone wires for a couple of mi a while back..  caused ping and ck eng lite to come on..
