Other than an engine light that I have had since day one...(The kind that comes on..rev the engine and it goes away...then comes back two days later, I am interested in watching Clyde and Scott work on the drop spindles and interested in what Jake has to offer regarding timing, valves, etc. Probably need to do that bushing also.
I could always install a radio in my V-DUB.....Music would make the HEAT more bearable!!

Sweet looking grill. Good job Inge.
I got my carb kits ordered and payed for next day shipping. Barring any unforseen problems, I'll have them in hand when I arrive on Friday. I also picked up a fresh gallon of carb cleaner. _________________ 73 Typ481

My girl is not making it this weekend. She is having a weekend out with all her friends. If anyone is looking for something to give me a hand with, the bus could use:
Valve adjustment
Adjust timing
Unknown oil leak/burn (a quart needed every time I fill up the tank)
General tinkering
We'll see what else I can come up with :wink:
What's the address?
See ya there _________________ Ted Mierzwa

"General tinkering." Ain't that tinkerbelle's Dad?
Scott- I don't have a bearing packer for getting the grease all thru the wheel bearings. I normally just use my clean hands. This is about the only tool I haven't bought or made .
The earliest I can get there is about 4pm. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam
