Liberty Shudder
Liberty Shudder
Hey all
I have a bit of a problem with my gen 2 lib.
When i take off, without revving the sh*t out of it, it will take off fine
but as soon as i start to get higher revs it starts to really shudder and seem to lose power and it sounds like its about to stall.
I must admit i do drive it really hard, revving really high before changing gear but i've only been driving it for a week and i don't always drive like that (only to show off )
Could it be gearbox or clutch related?
Help please?? I want to have an idea of what it could be, before i drop the gearbox to start troubleshooting.
Thanks

wow couple of things this could be
wheres the shudder coming from??
how long does it last???
i was going to say i could be the spark plug fowling but i dont think so now
is it just when you take off with high revs or also when you drive with high revs??

are you sure what your calling a shudder isnt the engine trying to stall?? it could be your ecu and fuel system is playing up, fouling the plugs and the like

if you know how (please say you do!!) pull the plugs out of the engine, check them out they shouldnt be black and charred or soaking in oil or fuel. ecu and fuel is really the same problem and there isnt much you can do

Are you sure your not redlining it?
because if it is - the ECM is protecting the engine and its a rev limiter that cuts fuel supply. Wont be gearbox/clutch related, its the electrical on engine. Could be timing belt that could be 1 teeth out?
