HI guys. Just bought my first Apex with an MCX rear mount turbo. Basically took it off the trailer and rode it about 2 blocks and parked it in the garage. It seemed to run fine when I had it out but never took it above 1/4 throttle. The only thing I have done since then was change the oil and add a 2 inch ROX riser. Didnt disconnect anything. Fired it up after changing the oil to get the level correct and it seemed to run fine when I did that. The throttle cable had to be re routed as it was too short and would rev up if you turned the handle bars all the way to one side. Today I went to start it and it would barely run. Seemed like it was running on 2 or 3 cylinders. Ran rough and if I didnt keep on the throttle slightly it would die. It has lots of gas so that cant be it. When I start it up I can hear the fuel pump prime. There are no codes showing up on the screen. I checked all the conections I could find and they all seem good. I checked the fuses on the right side above the chain case. All good. I backed it out and tried to go up and down the driveway. I could get it going but didnt have any power and when I let off the throttle it would stay revved up for a few seconds adn then die off. I could keep it running but it was acting strange. What am I missing. I' ve always had 2 strokes and they were easy to diagnose but this thing has me stumped and being that its my first turbo I really have no idea where to even start. If anyone has some suggestions of what to look for I would really appreciate it. Of course the dealer here doesnt do much with turbos so Im not sure they would even be a help if its a turbo problem. Its weird that it worked perfect last weekend and now after sitting for 5 days in a heated garage it acts up. It cant be anything frozen. Stumped!!!. Forgot to mention it has a Pure Logic controller on it. Thanks for any help. Rizzo
