I might have to have you tech me. I don't think I'll pass otherwise.. Sad


I thought you passed last time? No problem though.

Breather is caughing up a significant amount of oil I"ll try to clean up before saturday, plus the fuel line issue they gave me a hard time for last time.

I need to fix my shock mount before Saturday. I lost the bolt and bent the pirch on the axle somewhere on the K-falls gathering/cruise.

I dunno....I did notice about halfway home I heard a high pitched "ping" sound and there was a loud rattling sound from there on home....

Its not bad on the axle, I think vice grips and a propane torch and a trip to the JY and hardware store should solve the problem.

I think I'll go for the "jam nut" effect and grab two from the hardware store this time.

Yup yup 7 Inches too much to be exact. As well as the oil leak. The guy who teched me last time was kind of cool about it, but he made a point that he probably shouldn't have let me pass.

Where the hard lines come off the frame rail to the inlets for the fuel pump, there's rubber lines there.

maximum amount of allowed rubberized fuel line is 12" so how are you too short? or are you saying that you have 21" of rubber line?

I have about 20" of rubber line between the frame rail's hard line, to the pump. 10" on the inlet, 10" on the pressure return line.

I see. Was there anyone from the crew at PIR last night? There was a black IROC there that ran 15's and a gray camaro that ran 13's and was very clean, had some meaty tires in the back too.
