Ya it must be the float needle on that one carb. its wierd that it just started all of a sudden.
-
No worries. I let the bike dry out, and also found a disco'ed wire. I also pulled the plugs and found that they were very well fouled. a couple had ash deposits...
but anyway, it still isn't running all that great. Now gas is overflowing out of the bowl and air filter on one of the carbs. it wouldn't idle very well either.
ps
it has electronic ingnition.

I was riding my '77 KZ 650 in the rain the other day. after it sat for the evening it wouldnt run. the air filters were pretty wet, but it doesnt seem to have spark.

It does look pretty sweet:clap:

GD is a D O U C H E BAG, all there is too it. nothing wrong with anything the original poster did. Any one can be blunt and straight forward, but it is most helpful if it were stated in a positive way.
A car's value (that is on the market for sale) is between two people: what the seller would trade for it, and what the potential buyer would pay for it. right?
In this dudes case, he should have it appraised becuse it is not for sale, and it is unique.
There is no question to what it is worth to any of us. Everyone knows usmb members are poor hippies, or total nerds that dont like to spend money

31 inchers are unneccasary. just drop down to some 30's... 29's, 28's, 27's... just do whatever you want! I think you'd be surprised at what the soob will turn.

ta heck with an LSD, if you don't lift it, or if you do, just easily convert, and i mean EASILY convert that USD, into an LD/Licoln Locker/welded diff. It makes ALL the difference, whether its lifted or not!

take that same agnle iron, and weld it to your stock mustache bar for reinforcment. I never thought of doing to the ole' front suspension parts though:Flame:

Mmmmmhhhmm
or this one
I was on my way to a party in the dunes, in the dark, and I drove it off an eight foot razor back! It was burrried in sand up to the hood, so we dug it out and my buddy pulled me out with his hatch. The front end was smashed up into the block, so we had to cut the fan wire. I still drove it out to the party, and procedded to get lost. But still, she drove out of there in the monring, and still lives to tell about it today! It was my first car.
here is a before shot (on the left)

I heard Subaru was going to come out with a motorcycle. Does any one know if this is true?

I had the heater core mixup happen to me to when I was R&Ring the wagon's heater.
GD's tip about the junkyard is good - there are many decent cores to be had in dead cars - but an even better reason, IMO, is that you can just remove the entire heater assembly from a junk car, R&R it, and then just swap it into your car when you do the deed. It will make a day-long project into a half-day-long project without as much deadline-pressure.. and most places charge little enough for heater parts that the cost will be worth it.
Also, if you're an EA81 owner, you might check the hot water valves that run between your heater core and the engine's heater hoses - yours may need replacing and it's no extra work to harvest a junk car's hot water valve while you're in there.
I had replace my heater control valve... Subaru wanted 106$ (!!!!!
) for one brand new. I JY'ed mine for $4 
...i just hope it doenst leak. -
yeah dude, we ran into that same probablem. i guess you'd have to go with some metric radial A/T's or a 15" wheel. they have phased out the 14" wheel, and tire.
-
Yeah, you guys are right! there are no axles in! but don't worry, the rear-end is fully locked. BUT, soobs got enough balls that they don't need 4wd most of the time
-
Sweet, check this out!

I had a 2barrel Carter Weber on my '82 Brat GL (unless it was only a single barrel...who knows). but yeah, find a Weber

yeah, no shirt(without the r), why not just buy a toyota?:cool:
-
yeah, I'm with the "why?" buuuuut, I think it'd might be cool if you did the whole yota drive train: motor, tranny, and rear solid axle (maybe a front too) all this with a lift of course
-
sounds like worn balljoint noise to me. When it's time to replace "one" side, the other side is quick to follow.
-
If the fusable-link is blown, she ain't gunna start. I don't thiink you can buy those....(?) but they aren't hard to get from the junkyard. You can also "make" one with some wire, connecters, and crimpers/strippers. But still replace it with the FUSABLE link. if its a relay, I don't know --replace it.

I didn't see no super charger...?
-
No one wants to go? oooooookay

Just letting everyone kno that i had a local machine shop make me up a custom bracket for the throttle cable. I made a template out of cardboard and gave it to him and he made me a really nice one out of steel. Thanks for the offer again [HTi]Dain
