Spent last week in Revelstroke. Pretty fun, even with too little snow (rocks and trees still issues) and too much snow (you could stick it going downhill, and visibility was a constant struggle). Our stockers ran great except for front shocks constantly sticking in the fully compressed position. I now see why guys put those shock covers on. I thought they were for looks. Our turbo ran crappy at altitude higher than we were used to, and finally started running on only 3 cylinders on the last day. Checked spark on the bad cylinder and it was present. Checked compression when I got home and it was fine. Two days earlier I started experiencing elec problems. Gage and light would stay on with key off. Relay (I assume they are relays) to the right would hiss. I pulled the relay the first day to shut all down. Next day I pulled it and some gage funtions stayed on. I haven't had time to mess with it, but I can't help but think the elec issues are linked to losing the cylinder. Think I'll replace the relay first? Also going to check for fuel. Any ideas?
 
Wow, sorry I have no idea.

Maybe it's one of you coils? You could move them around and see if the problem follows the coil from the dead cylinder.

Maybe your battery is iffy and can't provide adequate power to run four cylinders any longer?

Maybe something got wet (a relay) and just freaked some things out? This would be my guess.

Best of luck buddy

I tried swapping out coils and plugs on the hill. It is real weird.
