Now that trey is working, what did you think:

I knew it was the plugs

It was the plugs, but I didn't tell him
0 (0%)
I told him it was the plugs at least a dozen times
0 (0%)
Just because you changed the plugs doesn't mean you put in good ones
1 (12.5%)
Just because spandex WILL stretch that much doesn't mean it should
7 (87.5%)

Photoed the chain guard on Trey (see the WTSell section).
Hugger this weekend on Junior and Suzi as I have to drill the holes for the hugger, and wanted to get Trey working first.

I guess when it comes to spark plugs, I got as much sense as an empty change jar. But it worked with the choke on  :dunno_black: go figure?

"I got checks left. How come there's no money in my account for them?"
"Where's the ANY KEY ?"
"My computer stopped working.....OK....I'll open the window to see if it is plugged in. We're having a power outage at the moment."

(I know you're all giving me a hard time - its fun!)
I added a poll just for giggles  :icon_lol:

Funny poll. Voted for spandex.

Plugs can be bad new (bad batch) or the box they came in could have been dropped.  Goofy luck. Chalk it up to a learning experience.

Have fun with the rebuild.

You were lots of help there Scotty. Thanks for chiming in.




When the 2nd Amendment is lost, the rest will soon follow.

Here in the fuel IV and carb sync. Not the origianl carbs. They will go on next week after the 37 jets are replaced with 40's.
He runs. Sputters a little - more like harder firing of one cylinder periodically. Not to worry, the carbs are the spare set thrown on for testing. He'll be even better when his cleaned up original carbs get back on. Also got 2 new plugs for him. Took him for a ride. Probably will run better after all the oil and craps burns out of everywhere.

Put 40 pilots in his original carbs. Replaced mains just so they were new. Adjusted and put on.
Now Trey runs better than ever! No hanging idle or any gaps in power.
Changed airbox for one that didn't have the boots all munched up. So no air leaks (WD40 tested!).
No gas leaks with change of o-ring in tank petcock.
Maybe a valve adjustment soon.
Trey will be good until warmer weather to do a complete replacement of all gaskets so he no longer marks his territory. Its only a drop or two and looks worse than it really is.
