Good Morning!!!! 40F ! 4:45AM. A good deal of sunshine. High 64F. Winds N at 10 to 15 mph.
Still no rain in the ten day forecast.
Finished magneto and generator installation on the old bike, and once I got the carbs primed properly, it started right up. Ran long enough to verify that the timing was very close to perfect, then peaked idle fuel mixture and balanced them at low and high RPMs. Have no idea what "low" and "high" mean, as there's no tach on this old gal. Forgot to check generator output, but couldn't get it to start again once the DVM was hooked up. Flooded it, so still need to get the hang of what it likes. I did drain the old gas and fill with fresh stuff, and will try some new spark plugs today. I have two offers for swapping my modified flywheel for a stock one, so I picked one yesterday and let the fella know. Now to bone up on swapping flywheels. Hope it doesn't involve re-shimming crank end play. I know it involves building a puller, but doing so wouldn't be my first rodeo...
Hope everyone's week gets off to a good start!
