one side pipe getting hotter then the other? what gives

[BLOODRAGE]

got the ss fired up for the first time, the pto side pipe gets hotter then the other.last time it fryed that piston now it seems like its trying to do the same.im thinking there must be an airleak just on the one side?

CDI or coil could have something to do with it... My stock coil used to do that just fire on one side and warm one up while the other would fire on occasion.

that could be the problem.it wouldnt start up until i got new plugs today.ill try and swap the plug wires and see what happens,thanks

Mine was doing the same thing and turned out to be the coil

just tryed it.does the same so it cant be the coil

If you have already fried that side once, my opinion would be rule out the air leak first! If that checks out than start looking into your electrical system!
