71 Turquoise Goon

Road contruction season in Eugene ain't no shit to be trifled with.

just checked the prostate, all looks good. My monster wagon is the smoothest shit ever, ain't no stopping me...oh wait....

I had a uncureable fuel line cloggin frustration of a b210 once. Cleanned the tank and card several times. What my problem ended up being was the fuel lines, they where so old that while they looked fine on the out side, the inside was breaking apart.

[Skeletonbonez]

Interesting... I could imagine that could be me too. I'll look into that tomorrow. I made a solution; this old bike tire valve/hose setup and a bike pump to blow out the lines when it clogs up on the highway...

Same issue on my 1200 after I got it on the road. Replaced the hard line and no more problems.

Meant to post this last night, no biggie but the dome light works and I thought this was kinda a cool photo

[MicroMachinery]

That photo is very cool. I like the tach peeking out at you.

[Skeletonbonez]

nice and mysterious.. If I could only get that damn tach to work. Took my first road trip outside Eugene today. No hickups or anything, also we finally installed the speedo cable. Just enjoying driving this goon!

On my way to help Draker get the bamboo 69 to start, got a flat on week old les shwab tirs luckily they are warrantied! Have that fixed tomorrow

[Skeletonbonez]

Ordered some gas lines today, now that I have a little change in my pocket step one in fuel line recovery

[izzo]

lol a working dome light. crazy man. that thingsure looks bright in the photo. I need to inspect my gas lines too.

[levigideon]

The cargo light in the back works now too. So luxurious.

[Laecaon]

Protip, I connected a wire between my 2 dome lights. Before the switches, that way when you open either front door, or hatch, all lights come on. If you wanted to get fancy, you could probably put a Diode in the wire to make it so all came on with the doors, but the cargo only lighted with the hatch.

I did need to drill a tiny hole under the plastic hinge cover at the top of the D piller (passenger side of course) to feed the wire down.

[Skeletonbonez]

Yeahh that would be sick. Its nice to have that working.

Lately i haven't had much issues at all, just been driving it and loving it. Replaced the brake lines to 5/16ths, and Levi and I began to lower it a little bit at a time. these big ass tires have to go.. as low as I can get, also cut 1/4" off the tc rod sleeve bushing thing to pull it forward a little to clear

[izzo]

you cut a qtr inch, then did you move it to the front of the TCR to pull it forward more?

[Eagle_Adam]

Looks good where it's at!!!

[Skeletonbonez]

I cut it, then tightened it down as far as i could and it pulled it just enough for 100% clearance. Got a gnarly rake now, but it will make it to blue lake
