    which oil to use??

    Yes, a shared sump is a killer on oil. Rotella seems to be popular among the bike crowd . It's all I use in my Vulcan. Syn may be better but unlike the Supra I tend to change the oil in the Kawi more often because of the shearing and Rotella is cheap. I know you have a great depth setup so you...

    which oil to use??

    My pleasure, hope someone found it useful. 90, I'm not Net limited at the moment. I've been elsewhere for a week to visit some friends but I'll be heading back to Ukraine soon.

    which oil to use??

    which oil to use??

    Lol...I dunno what rebranded oil is Beemer's. I think it's M1 but I'm not sure. jimi: you're dead on. Glad to see someone has a clue but that's obvious from the attention to detail in the work you do.

    How's the MPG?

    I get around 18-20 city and around 25 highway. Boost maybe three or four times per drive or when needed. Otherwise it's not beat on. Been that way since day one. The car is lightly modded with an engine of 34K miles and in perfect tune. It gets a full check up (including 5 gas analysis) twice a...

    Engine Cranks but will not start

    Double check your CPS and timing again. And how do you know it has fuel?

    I'll take that as a compliment ;). If I told ya I'd have to kill ya but I live not far from you....especially by air. Close enough help you out if you ever get in a techno-supra bind. In fact I operate through a friend's proxy server located a stone's throw from your town.

    Lol, thanx. Considering I've been a fan of the show since way back when it first came out I should know how to spell it. At least it's still on. I just wish they'd bring Duckman back.... I live in the Land Of Fruits And Nuts (California) but spend a part of my summers working in Ukraine. The...

    Shine up Taillight Covers

    Micro-Mesh. Used to remove scratches on aircraft windscreens, watch crystals, helmet shields, on and on. A kit costs around 18 bux. Google the term for suppliers. Here's one: http://tinyurl.com/hgtdq And the company http://tinyurl.com/eu5vl Great stuff...but a bit labor intensive.

    My targa brace

    That's a nice looking design Weezl. I'll be in for one of these. Since I used to live in Corvallis I'm up there fairly often so you won't have to ship it. How soon do you think they'll be done? I'm assuming it'll come unfinished so it can be painted to match?

    Gas saving idea from the other forum

    It's a standard zirconium sensor Allan. It's there to serve the cat, that's it's sole purpose in life. It'll output 0 to about 800 millivolts but has a sharp transition at 450 millivots. It doesn't have a linear output. That's why the wideband (A/F Ratio) sensor was invented. Stoichiometric...

    Alternator Bushes

    No part number for the brush set/holder, only the bearings. It's an easy item to get though and any shop should have it. Same with a dealer. Lol...Lucas, The Prince Of Darkness. I used to have a Lucas T shirt that depicted a switch on the front. It had two postions: Off and Flicker ;)

    driveablility issues

    Aha, that explains it. I was also going to point out it was coming from no less than a Texan but I figured that was going too far :)

    Good for you...except I'm not sure if the words "quite lovely" and "I have balls" belong in the same sentence ;)
