KA24DE Sputter Issue

So anyways guys my friend has a KA single cam in his 180 and well it tends to kinda sputter a lil while it's idling and then the sputter becomes more intense at about 2k rpm's. He says once he's above that it still some what sputters but not as much. Now i need your guys suggestions on what could cause this so we can make a list and go down the line until we fixed this because its his DD and well the rain in souther california should be coming around and he cant ride his bike to work.

do some searching on the issue.

sounds like spark plugs/wires maybe and check the MAF, clean it with CRC MAF cleaner.

i have no idea, never used it

just get some of this


it's probably around $7 but it works. it's made specifically for the MAF so you're not taking any chances
make sure you follow the instructions on the can
