newbie electrical gremlins
Dano replied to longrider805's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Man, no wonder I hate cheese! That thing looks NASTY in there! I'm surprised it worked at all! I know they pour a sealant on there after manufacturing and it can yellow, but not like this! Good luck finding a replacement! BTW, do we have anybody doing repairs? I've got one with 2 channels down and would like to have it repaired! Dan- 30 replies

I would say that Kenny didn't have a wasted day, he was still riding!

Possibly getting a stuck float and a good synch job. Try running some Seafoam thru there and see what happens. Good luck

RIP, friend Ron. May you ride the golden streets of your reward in heaven.

Hey Gary, at least it was a productive night! Glad you and Ron had a great nite, Peg. Saw him and Mellencamp at the LiveAid here in Indy in 88, private party the night before.

If the side bags look tilted at the bottom, low in front high in back, rather angular, then its 83-85. They also have handles on the top of them. 86 and up are more rectangular and square on the bike. That helps if you're running down the road. Also, the trunk on the 83-84 has a single pad with no armrest bumps coming out. 85 and up had a separate rectangular pad in the middle that sticks up 3-4"s above the trunk. Hope that helps

I actually handled that quite easy. First time introduction to the boy, I would shake his hand (firmly), look at my daughter and say....... "So, do I kick his a$$ now or later?" Never had ANY trouble!!!!!!

I'll take the TCI if its available at a fair price. PM me. Just asking, what do you want for the rear luggage complete with mounting hardware? Just toying with an idea here.

No intake pressure on #2 cylinder.
Dano replied to Dragonslayer's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
I would go with the stopped up tube theory. You could open up the air box and visually check that the butterfly on #2 is closed. If the piston is in there and it's going up and down and the valves are opening and closing (doesn't need to be all the way, but it helps!) then you should be getting some kind of reading on the synch tool. Try a different channel on the tool just to rule that out. You are measuring the vacuum created by the air rushing past the tube that you hookup to. This is created by the vacuum the piston creates when it moves downward. Ergo, even if both intake and exhaust valves are completely open, you should still get some kind of reading there. Just my wandering thoughts, Dano -
Gonna need a long rope to reach the garage then.......

Whew! Glad I read it the whole way thru! Does Dale have anything to say about it?!!!! Tremendous news! Not for him of course, but who cares!
