Re: Newbie questions

Well messed around with the sled some today. I forgot to mention that the belt has been off the whole time I've been working on it. I turned the engine over by hand today and found the "sticky" spot. It occurs every 360 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise. It almost feels like something ...

Re: Newbie questions

Well, I have finally had a few hours to mess with my VMAX. After I had restrung the recoil, I did get it running for a short time. I seem to have a couple of problems. The first is that I seem to be running on one cylinder. I just put a set of new NGK BR9EYA plugs in prior to trying to start it. I c...

Re: Newbie questions

I really don't know how they extended the track, but looks like they used oem components. I doubt they would have changed the original pro link system, but don't know for sure. I really haven't had much time to look at it because right after I got it my Dad fell on the ice and had to have surgery in...

Re: Newbie questions

Killer Klown, what stories have you heard? If K&Ns producing a lean condition, I would think you could just alter the jetting to compensate. I plan to put a few fairly easy miles on the sled and watch the egts. I am glad that they are installed (about a foot down from the exhaust port). Thanks f...

Newbie questions

Just picked up a 1983 with an extended track and 2200 miles. I know nothing about this sled. It appears that the track extension is similar to those I've seen on a few Phazers. Do they share the rear suspension and tunnel? At some point the previous owner installed an egt sensor in each pipe (stock ...
