tazmocycle Posted May 8, 2015 #1 Posted May 8, 2015 I am hoping to run over to Jackson, Ms tomorrow to help Walter out on his 22mm carbs on his royal star standard. he'll be home from gun class around 6pm and I guess we 'll start on them or if I get there earlier, I may go ahead and start on them. I'm going to spend the night there and head back home Sunday evening about 2pm. if anybody wants to come over and check us out or show us how to do it. LOL I wish there was more time to post this up but I have been working double shifts, 5 days a week and 5 hrs or so on sats. you can call me (205-593-6440) or walter stitt(wes0778). his phone # is in member list for Ms.

tazmocycle Posted May 13, 2015 Author #6 Posted May 13, 2015 well, we got them off and they had a lot of corrusion in them, cleaned them up and started rebuilding. on #4 the pms screw wouldn't come out so i had to use 1 i had brought with me. got them back on and running, but #4 still not firing good, may need new plugs. had to leave and get back to work, got back, and took a hour nap in parking lot at work before going in. was dragging by the end of shift, old age catching up with me! LOL! after he gets a battery and check the plugs, walt going to sync them, if he can't get it smoothed out, we'll get back together to finish up.

Venture n Dixie Posted May 13, 2015 #9 Posted May 13, 2015 But I gotta admit, although I wasn't there physically my mind was. Just as well. Saturday night I had to drive 2 1/2 hours south to take a spare key to my son who lost his at the whitewater festival in Columbus GA.
GAWildKat Posted May 13, 2015 #10 Posted May 13, 2015 But I gotta admit, although I wasn't there physically my mind was. Just as well. Saturday night I had to drive 2 1/2 hours south to take a spare key to my son who lost his at the whitewater festival in Columbus GA. Tell the son to call AAA, that's sadly why I keep several spare keys on me, I misplace mine, at least once a year. 2 yrs ago my entire keyring was stolen off my purse in Savannah, bet the thief had a fun time trying to find a caprice and g6 that weren't in Savannah.
Venture n Dixie Posted May 13, 2015 #11 Posted May 13, 2015 Not sure what AAA could have done in this case. One of those new fangled Honda keys with the weird engraved teeth, computer chip & remote. Think a spare is gonna cost him $100 & that's a "deal" from a friend. Enjoyed the late night road trip anyway & Columbus Riverwalk was worth the drive.
