  4. i was wondering why it was taking you so long to say it :rotf:
  5. i recommend the Ignitech that member dingy sells for 260.00 you cant go wrong and he pretty much has all the bugs worked out and helps you out with any problem you do have with it
  6. i hoping so to i have to reschedule my interview as its tomorrow and congrats to Jeff but he went in the wrong direction they have shorter riding season up there
  7. i think he rode the bike to hattiesburg then picked up a friends envoy the rest of the way

  10. and since its been sitting a year seafoam :whistling::rotf: there i said it befor yammerdan :rotf::rotf: 1/2 can to half tank then run it like you stole it
  11. i like that idea.............................. but i got to get in with them first and my 1st gen is stopping that im suppose to leave tomorrow to go up for the interview and haven't even gotten the bike back home yet im gonna have to reschedule my interview now and get this thing running may have to find some stuff to sell to so i can make it up there another thing im gonna do is get another trailer to haul bikes on all my friends around here are on vacation or loaned there trailer out Walters friend offered and his son loaned his trailer out ok done venting i think :rotf: got to laugh at it though it is indeed funny but transfer to san Antonio i like that
  12. if its still running then it should do the trick but check your coils to to be on the safe side as your tach gets its signal from # 2 coil and if you haven't changed the diodes in the spare i would do that one too but this is all still a learning experience for me only its the hard way also bake your tci in the oven at 100 degrees for 30 min it will cook all the moisture out witch is bad and i recommend reading the tech library section there is detailed instructions in it on what to check and how to check
  13. we challenge our own with the problems that pop u too but who doesn't love a good challenge :whistling:
  14. yes im going thru it now i now have a no spark condition i cant figure out and my bike is 34 mies away in a parking lot so cant tell you much more other than my old tci died put new tci in and changed plugs nnow its no spark check your connectors clean them and check coilsthats all i can tell you for now
  15. i was thinking (and thats dangerous) one of yall 1st gen mechanics needs to move closer to me ..........................it was worth a try
  16. glad its running better for you i plan to go thru everything with a fine tooth coe when i can replacing all rubber hoses seals the works

  18. i pulled that plug apart several times put it back and still no spark and the 6 wire plug im starting to think its either the pick up coil or i dont know i will be calling a friend of wes0778 at 330 he lives close and has a trailer as f now the saddle bags are off side covers trunk radio and battery wasnt leaving to much with the bike while i am away from it
