I had a little trouble in the spring when I jumped started my 02 dale and the fuel pump quit working. Seemed to work itself out until now. I jumped started it the other day and accidentally touched the starter terminal instead of the + battery terminal. Once I did that it would not start. I pulled t...

I recently installed the status light kit from Cannonboomer. The red overheating light is blinking but when I check my radiator with an infrared thermometer is records around 185 to 195 which I believe is within the normal range. What would cause this light to misfire? The ECU? Also I am running Eva...

My compression gauge does not have an adapter as small as our plug size. Does anyone know how many millimeters it is so I can order one?

Sure, I live very close to US 23 and M 59. Tanger I believe is on 59 and I-96 which puts you due west of me by about 25 minutes.

I guess it is time to give up. I spoke to Cord @ B/W and I confirmed that the flywheel is in the proper position so he wants to have a look see at the motor for himself. So its back in the shipping container for my motor and a ride to Utah. Thanks for all the help guy! I learned a lot just troublesh...

[QUOTE]<i>Originally posted by MX Quad Dad </i><br />[B]This is my thoughts.

I changed the fuel filter but no luck. But I have another question. I have read that your idle position should be 3x your idle position when resting on the stop. The stock position is 3.9. Which do you defer to? I tried both but no change. Also when you hit the update calibration button it has a sel...
