I think I am about to lose another motor....
Valves were adjusted what.. 2 weeks ago, less even, and now it sounds like thumbing a hair comb, when you come off idle thru 1200-1300.. or thereabouts. I am beat. I can't make anything fail the same twice, and never on a meter.. last night I was sure I nailed down a CHT problem, today, it's fine. (should be.. it's new) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) Thing was tuned up 2 weeks ago, and ran for about 60 minutes since that time, without incident, otherwise.. 3 motors, would that be a 20k record? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) I have put up in the 150k range, on more than one. I see some liquor coming, when I scrape these 9 dimes together.

Scott, my man.. thanks.. I have been hesitant to report good things today, but after r&r on the relay board, and removing the harness, re-re-terminating a few places, rerouting spark wires, re-replacing the CHT, and re-everything you can imagine.. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) i think i have a fully (no aar) sorted electrical, and injection system. shhhh... The combing noise is minimal when warm, nearly non-existant hot, and as annoying as you can imagine cold. 1&4 were spot checked (time people!) and were in spec. I did all that, and carved a fingerboard extension for an F model mandolin, and glued in the neck, in a day.. so... Not bad, for an 'owner'.. hehe God help me, I am no mechanic. M |
