Hey guy, I have an 03 viper 6000 miles it became lazy on the 2nd last ride last season after hitting a major drift in a snowstorm,shut it off to help a buddy get unstuck when i started it back up it was fine again,Put another 120 miles on the next weekend and it ran perfect till nearly home, then became lame again.! one cylinder is burning black the other to are perfect tan, anyone out here experieced this sort of problem before,just had it runnig yesterday,it's still the same,idles fine but just not snappy,power valves are fine...........any ideas......?

Do a compression test on that cylinder and compare it to the other 2 cylinders and go from there

That's what I'm going 2 do Mr, It's not dirty carbs ......the confusing part is why.......it did it the first time and then cured itself..?

Thanks
 
i was thinking you picked up a piece of dirt when you hit the drift & sucked it in a jet.then when shut off.it fell in the bowl again..?? just the first thing that popped in my head.
 
It could be alot of things, Stator starting to go out, Carbs dirty or out of adjustment, fuel pump not pumping enough.... ect... Start searching, Do the compression check, check the carbs and adjustment, could be the wires or cap..
