Once the piston hits the pan you don’t need spark plugs any more

So think about this. Over time the wood drys out and once this happens the nylock nuts spin when trying to tighten or remove. Double nut isn’t the end of the world. When I replace my bunks I put a coat of resin on the bare wood and wet set the carriage bolts, then placed the carpet. 

Same issue.  Same code.  Definitely has a misfire.  350ss 2013 VTX.  As far as I can tell the Monsoon 350SS is basically a marinized 350 vortec crica 1998.  

Is there a place to get a cap and rotor and O2 sensors other than Malibu/Indmar?

@justgary Only did it once but took my time.  I have an LCR 320 so getting to them is easy.  You thinking i should just pull each rail with all of them out and visually inspect?

 

Remember that I am just free advice from some dude on the internet.  Don't rip your engine apart on my say so.

UPDATE: A friend of mine advised I give it the "italian tune-up" (run real hard for awhile) before swapping out more parts. So, went slalom skiing this morning and alarm/code still present at startup but, after 6 runs, 34mph, 5000 RPM, it cleared. No more alarms and no fault codes in the submenu. I'm flummoxed because the manual says "3 warm-up and cool down cycles" to clear the code, which I've done in excess. I'm going to get a new cap/rotor regardless and have on hand in event it comes back. But, hope this helps someone! 

Thank you both! Chuck--I just realized you're in Victoria. Basically a stone's throw from me in New Brighton. Appreciate all the advice. 

If you want any local help - let me know.  Always happy for a reason to get on a bike and work on stuff.
