Every engine I have owned with a mechanical valvetrain had it's own associated noises, even when things were right where they should be. As long...
If I haven't been banned yet, then most everybody else is safe... :eek: :smile: I'm also one of the new people, and from my perspective, the...
I didn't know Schwinn had springers in '52... neat. Your VFR looks to be in really good condition. Are the calipers repainted, or is that the...
I added a "Thanks" yesterday to a technical problem follow-up, because I like knowing what the resolution was. Many technical issues just go away...
Good question. Since the only thing that would change is a lookup value that gets reported to the display, for temperature and speedometer...
The 6th Gen manual says "F for USA, C for Canada".
Well, I just had to go try and see how many seconds I could be at a complete standstill on the VFR. Out of about 20 or 30 attempts, I made it to...
The RWB has darker wheels than the single colors, so even if they are dirty, they don't look too bad from a distance. Hope that helps! :smile:
Congratulations!
Lemme see now... I walk at about 3 MPH, so I could probably push the VFR at about 2.5 MPH, except I would be in my gear... 2 MPH, tops. I have...
If it is running significantly cooler, that could possibly cause it to be running slightly rich, particularly under high vacuum as you describe,...
Maybe Dizzy is about somewhere. He deals with this sort of thing all of the time. All I can think of is the valve cover gaskets leaking slightly,...
That's funny! Maybe he's trying to frighten the birds away.
Sorry to chop up the quote a bit. I was feeling efficient... I check the gas mileage on every vehicle I own, every time I fill up. Even when...
One of the neatest things about Jay Leno is that he really like his motor vehicles, and he drives them.
Does that mean that we are now required to chat, and only at specific times? What happens if we don't? OK, I'm through being difficult for the...
After due consideration, nitronorth, I have come to the realization that although I understand your dilemma, I am not capable of feeling bad for...
That sounds like a logical conclusion. Were the threads closest to the combustion chamber a bit sooty and black, or clean? Regardless, if you...
I did manage one fill-up that indicated 51 MPG. I made an effort (and it WAS an effort) to cruise between 4500 to 5000 RPM on the highway for...
This might sound silly, but when you have the air filter out, twist the throttle and make sure that the injector butterflies (throttle plates) are...
