I might-should have posted that in our dedicated Hammers thread . . .

I am thinking they did not mean Birmingham, Alabama, USA . . .

I am really trying to get my head around this. Here are three damper set-ups. What are we looking for here? And how to spot the fault? My Shindy with basic Heim/Rose joints (like the factory set-up?): @ChrisPDX's HyperPro: @Lucky Phil's Öhlins with "solid fitting": I am not understanding where the "spherical bearing" is or if my set-up might have this issue. Thanks for the scrutineering.

That seems an odd fuse to fault from that bare insulation. Best keep looking..... [edit: I think Bubbles deserves her own thread....] [2nd edit: I did find this interesting, dedicated Bubbles thread:

Which fuse is it (counting from the front)?

The deed is done. Your Humble Wizard DeLuxe Link to outcomes:

Handed the "answer" tag to @MartyNZ. [edit: "Golden Elephant Stamp " ] It continues to amaze me how dedicated our community remains!

I can fix that, if you like . . . Disappearing Acts are within my paygrade . . .

So, was the left coil power supply plugged into the right coil causing each to fire at the wrong time?

Just so I understand, the electrical power to the void was connected wrong (right to left)?

Success!!!!! What was the solution, @swooshdave?

Sure. You are talking about the TPS procedure, yes? Done. Thanks, @swooshdave! "With a quality voltmeter, connect the positive to the violet/black wire and the negative to the violet (the yellow is not used for this setting). With the Run Switch on, switch on the keyed Ignition Switch. Adjust the TPS to 157 milivolts "

No, not the same thing! That is just some ridiculous coincidence that shows "1.57!" The TPS is set in millivolts (mV) to 157 mV with the throttle plate completely closed. Resistance (Ohms/Ω) are not used to baseline the TPS. Reference (and perform) the "Decent Tune-up" . . .

@Steve Swan, only the Tenni and Scura of 2002. Also, the 2001 Rosso Mandello.

More to the topic, I had always thought (no experience) that oil analysis is used to establish change intervals, especially on industrial and commercial equipment with very large capacities (gallons). Or optimizing oil change intervals over a fleet (drums) . . . ?

Have you performed a "Decent Tune-up?" Proper valve adjustment and throttle body balance goes a long way toward damping unwanted vibration . . .

I have used the lead shot method of damping vibration. Because of the constant abrasion and bi-metal corrosion, I would pack those pellets in a grease bath next time . . .

I accept!

I didn't even get a Purple Armadillo Stamp for my smart arsed remark.

With @po18guy's definitive wording, I say he's eligible for the Silver Elephant Stamp.

Which RedLine gearoil did you use?

Cannot wait to hear impressions of this!

Hoping to have mine broken in here, pretty soon. Not so much the Sport, but "in the mind ", maybe . . .

Alright, then, I finally got time to watch the Fireball guy's promo video. Makes me wish I could get a mini-Fireball (I don't need a 259 pound vise!). His design analysis and assessment of the failure points is very instructive. I am now even more impressed with the Wittner Columbian C44. Looks like it has held up to serious hammering and sawing and chiseling for half a century or more . . .
