I’ve tested blower with power to plug 1 and nothing. I suspect it’s dead. I’ve searched on how to remove blower. Can’t find anything. This is for a 69

Some ideas from memory:
1. Take lots of pictures, especially where all the control cables go. Maybe label the cables. And make some diagrams. And take pictures. 2. Remove the air duct hoses. 3. Remove the cowl braces. 4. Undo the bolts, one on each side that hold the air box in place. 5. Pull the air box and blower forward while pulling the cowl upward. It helps to be VERY strong and VERY careful. Of course, all this assumes you have removed the fuel tank. |

Good points,I ripped down a piece of wood on my table saw and packed up the air box that way which was great as I was getting pretty pissed off before doing that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) . I didn't remove the bonnet as I had fresh paint but for this job it would have easier if its removed,you can get the fuel tank out with bonnet on however no issue . Its a bastard job but you get there in the end,my airbox had a new body seal so IMO it made it harder. Good luck. |
