Thanks for having me to the forum! I am working on a 2006 Honda foutrax AT. It had a leaking carb fixed that with a good cleaning. But it wont go faster than 15-20. it bogs down and farts and coughs. I put an inline spark tester on it at idle it is a nice clean spark. as you give throttle it gets more intense then at about a 1/3 throttle the spark cuts in and out. coil Tested 10.2 k I am thinking pulse generator but not sure how to test with a meter. Or is there a limp mode on these. Its not my bike. Thanks in advance

How did it run before the leaking carb was worked on?

guy brought it to me that way told me about the leak and the driving issue I confirmed the driving issue before doing any work, the esp light flashes 4 times VSS ? cant see how a bad vss would give no power.
Unless I am missing something

OK give a little more info. I started unhooking connectors and checking grounds, no luck. So I went for the wiggle test full throttle while running and if I wiggle the wires near the ecm it will come to life for a split second. Then I noticed just wigging the harness back there it would come to life but only intermittently. No wiggling would allow it to fully come to life. I still feel it may be the pulse generator. my wiggling may be doing nothing and it is catching on its own periodically. Any thoughts ?

See if one of the pins in the connector plugs have pushed in, and has a poor connection? Kill switch clean and good?
