Misses / back fires

[DV8]

New to the vmax 4 still figureing stuff out, Starts runs good idles nice but when you accelarate or while maintaing speed it will stutter or cut out, not all the time and not all cylinders, cant tell which cylinders, Plugs all look the same , anyone had coil problems, or wiring ideas i could check??
2nd Question, What does the TORS do exactly??? the light flasjes from time to time...doesnt seem to affect performance...
Thanks

TORS "throttle over ride system" if for some reason your carbs hang up, it will cut the motor rpm to below engagment rpm. normaly the "TORS" light will flash a few times when you first start it up, But if its doing after its been running for a few, its most likely out of adjustment. does the flashing of the "TORS" light seam to coincide with the motor cutting out?
Have you clean the carbs? I mean cleaned them REAL good? got fresh gas in it?

The flashing doesnt seem to coincide with the cutting out, It flashes as it starts up and then here and there while your riding, usually when it cuts out your accelarating fast or running at almost WOT so i am not looking at the gauges. I will have to check that more closely, is there a way to adjust the TORS???

Your carbs need to be looked at, and synchronised. Sounds like one or more are sticking or out of adjustment.

, is there a way to adjust the TORS??? Yes, if you post this question over in the general forum, more people will likely see it, and I`m pretty sure someone will post a page/s out of the manual that shows exactly how to peform the adjustment. I could try to describe it, but it would be alot easier to understand hows its done by looking at a picture or two.

Over-ride the TORS and then you'll know whether an issue or not. Unplug the 2 wires that plug into the TORS switch, and hook those 2 wires together. Now you have it jumped out... Located right next to white idle adjustment screw in middle of Carb rack..

Thanks guys, I will try to by pass the TORS switch, and the carbs probably could use a cleaning, I will try that and see if it clears it up.
