  2. i just bought one from autozone online. if you pay online, you get 20 % off, then pick it up at the store. its an AGM sealed battery. no acid. cranks the dickens outta my 83! less than 80.00.
  3. i believe it to be the voltage regulator. anyone know where i can get one?
  4. definately a stumble. carb diaphrams are good. just replaced 2 of them. seafoam keeps fouling out the plugs.....i have the choke off. it definately "smells" like its running rich.
  5. bike is stumbling at idle, dropping down in rpms, them back up. over and over. bike is warm. i replaced the plugs, relatively new wires, new to me tci. any ideas?
  6. unfortunately, sales managers are interested in just that, SALES. even though most of the money the dealer makes is in service and parts. my family has been a ford, lincoln-merc dealer since 1955. i chose the military route, less stress, and i got to retire already, albeit a broken back, but still.....

  18. after changing the plugs, changing the oil, i decided to install skydocs shim kit before i synced the carbs using the carbtune pro i got from zane. thanks again zane. 3 carbs, no problem. last carb, DOH! i must have put the nylon nut ever so slightly wrong, and SNAP! broke a diaphragm housing. lack of patience i suppose. only had about a good 2 hours of clear weather before the rain came this weekend. i found some new ones on ebay. so i bought 2, 1 for a backup. and i got 2 needle kits, just for spares.
