Hello,
I am new here! A Guzzi rider from Belgium.
I own a Breva 850. It covered 45000km's up untill now, without any real issue.
Only recently there is a strange problem.
At a certain point the engine started to develop a small misfire. Only from time to time, a small hick-up.
This hick-up is getting worse as the km's rise.
One morning the bike started on only one cylinder.
I removed the spark plugs an noticed that the left hand spark plug was completely black.
I fitted new plugs and the problem was over I thought, but after only 30 km's the problem came back.
Black left plug again.
The throttle valves are nicely adjusted, TPS is ok at 4.60.
I already swapped the coils and plug leads, all to no avail.
Fuel filter and air filter have been changed recently.
Now I am suspecting the injectors. Is it possible that the left hand one is staying a little bit open all the time,
resulting in a rich mixture?
I also must mention the fuel consumption. Normally the Breva needs between 5 and 6 liters depending on the
outside temperature and speed.
Now it needs 7 and more at moderate speeds and 13° c.
Anyone with constructive ideas?????
