Good day! My second XS. This is an 83 with the electric ignition.
I see that the PO gutted the exhaust which was causing severe backfiring. I went a step up on the jets and bam! problem solved. Now that I have the engine tuned up and the carbs acting right I see that the idle will remain fine for a minute then will shoot up, calm down, and generally behave irrationally. I am not sure about what might be causing this. I thought maybe it is the ignition, but it should not be if it is an electronic one like this 83 has.
Any suggestions????
Thanks,
Pat
