That's not going to run for shit in the box.

 

[Bent77]

So 9 hours without updates. Should be running

 

[Justin V]

Back inside...

 

[Justin V]

Also, front wheel bearings on both sides have some slop. I'll be looking into that as well.

 

[Bent77]

Done yet?

 

[Justin V]

Done putting it in the garage....


On a funny note, this damn q-jet won't even run well enough to turn the bald rollers into smoke...

 

[Justin V]

I did drill some bleed holes in my new t-stat.

I hate to jinx it, but that may be too many holes in cold weather....
I hope not...

 

[Bent77]

Yeah I always just ran them straight

 

[Justin V]

T-stat is cheap and easy. Not worried if I need a new one.

The current one spikes the gauge before it opens and then runs perfect until I shut it off again.

 

[Justin V]

Carb no mo

 

[6872xtc]

I have had some do that as well, so I know what you are up to.
I found out about the Felpro reusable T-stat gasket a couple of years ago. I think that it's worth it. I opened my housing a few times trying things.

 

[Justin V]

Another reason I want a bleed hole...

 

[Bent77]

So the thrash is on?

 

[Justin V]

Bye bye spread bore

 

[Justin V]

I wouldn't call it a thrash session

 

[Bent77]

New intake on yet?

 

[Justin V]

Nope called it a night
