  1. First you need to do a compression check. Throttle wide open on all cylinders. You could also spray some WD40, or carb cleaner, or brake clean into the carbs to see if that changes anything. get back to us.
  2. There are somethings that can be done to lower the seat height depending on the year, 1st gen, or 2nd gen. Sometimes the front can be lower as well as the rear, and a person could take some foam out of the seat cushion as well. I do think it would be trial and error somewhat. Hopefully someone as tall as you might have some real life ideas.
  3. Glad you got that over with and now we pray for good healing.
  4. That should work!
  5. Got the same unit sitting in my sons shop, been there for about 4-5 years now. Also have a 12hp and its' still running somewhat. Used mine for about 20 years before I bought a Deere F525, and now am onto a Country Clipper, the best one yet. It's a relic alright, and a good workhorse.
  6. There is a knuckle on that shaft on the other side of the cover bearing, so with no bearing to hold things in place the shaft will wiggle wherever it wants and seems to be broke.
  7. Might not be a real bad idea, I mean you already have them out, so you might as well. YES!!!!
  8. 12.5 is not charging.
  9. I hear FEMA isn't doing things so well.
  10. Need to clean the working of the knob with some electronic cleaner I bet.
  11. I still have my 2014 Ram 2500, thinking it will be the last truck I will ever need. I hate shopping for new vehicles. The last one I bought, a 2019 Mazda 5, I did over the phone, never even went to look at it.
  12. If memory serves me correct there is no bleeder at the steering head on an 83, those weren't installed until 86. That doesn't mean you don't have one, but it would be aftermarket. If the proportioning valve is compromised then you'll have fun getting things to work right if at all. That needs to be fixed first.
  13. That light indicates there is something amiss which cause can be found by checking the rest of the display. It could be low fuel, headlight burned out, over heating. It's telling you, take a look, you have a problem.
  14. Nice!!
  15. And now that has started, get ready for more! Congrats to you all.
  16. Wasn't the fork's fault, the split washer wears out and then the dogs don't/aren't seated properly.
  17. Fixed partway thru 85.
  18. I have a miniature tool kit with short bits and a small driver handle. Kit has many different bits in it. Harbour Freight or Princess Auto.
  19. It may be an 03, but it's no different than a 2013 but with maybe less miles.
  20. You should start a new thread and keep us posted on a weekly basis.
  21. Now maybe somebody in the know can help out easier.
  22. There are quite a few hoses attached in the area, thinking you'll have to be more specific in your description https://www.yamahasportsplaza.com/oemparts/a/yam/50045f89f8700209bc794e69/radiator-hose.

    Here's hoping that Rick ended up where he thought he might be going, if that turned out right he will be at peace now. Condolences to those who miss him and are mourning his passing.
