Had another crack at this today, i emptied the float bowls 3 were full of sh*t and 1 was bone dry, hooked up a decent battery and never started doesnt really seem to fire but had a small amount of backfire, il pull the plugs out tomorrow as i aint got a spanner small enough, in the meantime i slipped a random plug i found into the ht lead and crancked her over for a minute it had a couple of poor sparks and that was it
Shud of got another yam lol

Im in the middle of trying to do my fork seals, ive got one fork leg done correctly i think but the second is been a get, i couldnt remove the allen bolt from the bottom of the leg as its spinning so in order i had to take off the top cap to get in to hold the other allen bolt on the other end, i havnt got it sorted yet but am gonna tackle it at the weekend, only thing when i took the cap off the spring shot across the yard with everything else attached to it lol, how do i get the spring back in and the cap on afterwards as it seems hellish tight to push down.
Cheers Phil

My fz tank had quite a few holes, i emptied it out left it a few days then set about welding it, the only prob i had was due to it been that thin i ended up chasing the weld, i think i got halfway across the tank before i filled the holes lol
