I would suggest running iridium plugs instead of the stock ones. Tell them you will pay the upcharge.
This isn't the stock Pioneer plug?

I agree with the wisdom of buying from local dealer but it's not always possible.

I called my nearby dealer when I wanted a Talon. None in stock (pre-Chinese biological warfare attack). I went to Chattanooga and bought from "HondaProKevin."

Same when I wanted a Pioneer. NIS. Looked online and dealer in Parkersburg WV had several. But now I have to trailer the buggy to the selling dealer for service.

Hopefully, if he lays into the origination dealer they will help him get into the local dealer asap....you're probably right though... these days it's rare to find anyone who gives a s***.
Drove 3 hours one way back to dealer today as they were open. Sent pics before I left. Tech seems to think it has something to do with intake manifold. Missing clamp possibly. Guess we’ll see. Will update as I know more. Hopefully didn’t do any other damage to motor whatever it is.

Update. Just got word from dealer that the issue was due to a pinched wire that was connected to or had something to do with the pcm. Wire was rubbed bare and then shorted out.

I'd be really interested in what exactly they found, incase this issue comes about in my neck of the woods.
Probably won’t come across this issue as this was a quality control issue from the factory where a sensor wire that is connected to the pcm was pinched and after a bit of rubbing the wire shorted out.

No but I have no reason to dispute what they said either. Just glad they took care of it as soon as they did. May be lingering issues that arrive later but I’m taking the opinion of the tech as being golden.
I wish I had customers like you. Your a rarity these days.

I'm glad they were able to find the problem. Sometimes these shorted wires can be intermittent and hard to find. Where are you riding in Canada?

Sounds good, just make sure that they replace anything that was damaged.

They may have to replace all the heat damaged parts and I would thing Tech Line will want pictures. When the Pioneer 1000 had a problem causing it to run on one cylinder Honda did a recall to add an additional heat shield to prevent melting the plastic near the muffler.
