I have a 01 Yamaha yzf-r6. I bought it a month ago and it ran fine. Now its running really rough around 6 8 thousand rpms. I just changed plugs fuel pump,air filter and fuel filter. Wat should I do next if...

For what it's worth, I had the same issue with the same bike, just a R1 instead of a R6, it ran poorly at high rpms only, it was the fuel line not being routed correctly under the tank and it was starving for fuel at higher rpm due to lack of fuel, check it out, also check the fuel pressure regulator just to be sure it's got the necessary psi to run properly. Good Luck my friend! Ride Safe!

I have 2000 hyundai sonata, 4cyl...bought 6 mos ago..i noticed the rpm's go all the way to 3 when on highway...and transmission delays to switch gears....will i have transmission problems. pleae tell me...

You may need to have your transmission serviced. That would be a filter and fluid change. Any fast lube place can do that for you. I should think that if there was a problem with the transmission, the check engine light would come on. 3000 rpms does seem a bit high for the highway. Of course, you did not say how fast you were going. My wife tends to have a heavy foot in our 07 Elantra. She keeps the rpms up there around 2500rpm. That's about 80mph. My sincere condolences for your loss. God Bless.

Ducati 750 Monster - running problems

Try having the valve clearances checked and adjusted. As the engine gets hot, the clearances tend to close up and the engine begins to lose compression making it hard to keep running. Hope this helps!

1986 Pontiac Trans Am Overheating

Its overheating when you go up long hills because the engine is not getting adaquete air in the system. The radiator is angled to get optimal air a certain way. It may overheat but you shouldn't start seeing smoke.

2002 Dodge Ram 1500 with a 3.9 engine overheating

Check your rad hoses. They will tend to collapse (**** in) & cut down on flow at highway speeds, more than city, due to increased demand & flow on cooling system. If they don't feel relatively stiff, I'd change them. You might even see them **** in while sitting and revving the engine a bit.
