First garage of the New Year and with the rearranged garage parking. Had to drag myself down but feel like the mojo is coming back.
- Tightened up the headlight bucket so it wasn't wobbly anymore. (Why did it take me so long to do that?)
- Added the right clutch/CC gasket (last one in the binder)
- Added the intake-to-head gasket (also last one in the binder)
- Setup the fuel lines. Used 3/16" which fit the carb, the shorty filter, and the aux gas line.
All was going well, UNTIL...
The last thing was to add the K&N to the carb and only today did I discover that it's too big!! You could probably forcibly squeeze into into place, but it's a very, very tight fit.
Possible options:
- Just force it into place
- Find a different K&N filter (either offset or shorter)
- Use the stock filter
- Use the stock carb
- Cut down the K&N filter
- Remove the heat gasket temporarily (good for the test start)
