  4. Airhead replied to skik's topic in Classics
    i think the thread pitch may be fine and not the usual thread for whatever diameter they are...if they arent stripped why change them, they are probably high tensile too! was the nut loose? or just the gap had grown? you have been tinkering with the tensioner and not knowing how its done? perhaps the chain jumped a cog, check the alignment marks again
  5. noob looking for help! yeah post an intro lee, good manners dont ya think?

  8. Airhead replied to divster's topic in The Bar
    greetings agains divster, sure I saw that bike on the camping site at squires, unless someone else has a knobbly front muddie
  9. hard to start/elevated idlet or smoking exaust
  10. could be blocked pilot jets, choking the carb inlet would suck the fuel through the needle jet and so enable running until the inlet obstuction had gone?
  11. same thing happened to me Richard, took a while to figure it out but eventually found the oil pump driveshaft seal had popped out of its seating. I put this down to the overheating issues I was having making the seal soft ? Fitted new seal, bigger jets bla blah blah...never been a problem since
  12. another option is to ask on the aircooledrd club forum http://www.aircooledrdclub.co.uk/forum/default.asp
  13. yeah let us know how you go on maybe you could trawl the cmsnl site to compare numbers?

  17. Greetings loafy, sounds like a great find what's PEI ?
  18. Oohh Xmas again
  19. what happens when you press the horn button with the key ON but the engine NOT running?
  20. perhaps the fuel supply is slow due to a blocked filter gauze in the fuel cock? take off the fuel pipe and check for a good strong fast flow...not a dribble
  21. yes it'll work just fine but should have the early mk1 rotor as i said
  22. Airhead replied to Paulwhite's topic in General
