Maybe . The owner needs to watch the throttle linkage and make sure the throttle plates return to zero . The air cleaner housing to TBs can be loosened and pushed away to verify there is nothing keeping the throttle plates from working properly .

There are a multitude of "things" you can use on the ground strap . I would use a serrated washer along with Contax . It is a grease electricians use on ground connections . The bottle I have is a catalog # CTB8 . You need a complete circuit for things to be perfect . W/O witnessing your problem , I don't know what you need to cure your bike .

I was joking .......about the purchase . This would be ( if it existed ) an in person deal , with the understanding you might be getting a parts bike .

I missed what you are doing here....... please explain . are you fixing a ground connection ?

But it's half price ?

Yeah , I like the remortgage to valve adjustment part !

Hmmmmm . tank slapper . I do not care for them .

Your professional skills are showing .

99% of all spark plugs are resistor plugs . The 10k combined r is correct .

Yes , replace the plug cap only . You would NOT want to swap wires because you would probably end up removing the tank IDK the r value of the OEM cap . 5k sounds about right . I would check a good one and try to get caps w/the same r value just to be safe .

They are solid core wires . You can verify this by removing the caps and looking into the end of the cable and see copper strands .

Well , here is the news . Caps only screw onto solid core wires. It can be done , but it would be stupid . Resistor wires use crimped on ends and a tail of the inside lead is exposed and folded over when the end is crimped on . There is NO need to use a resistor cap on resistor wires . It would be redundant and serve no purpose .

You got that right !

Are you sure you don't mean H-pipe ? These were on factory dual exhaust cars in the 60s and had some kind of affect on the performance .

I bought one and haven't used it yet . I think I got it from Motion-Pro . It is something inexpensive and a very cheap tool to get a good result .

MOST caps that go on solid core wires screw onto the wire . Look down into the cap , you will see what looks like a sheet metal screw .This goes into the solid core . An original wire may be bonded to the cap and you will have to cut the wire to discard the original cap .

I don't think you could get the same amount of debris in the same place on the triple clamps / fork legs .

Ride it w/the 16 in. wheel for one year , then decide what you want to do .

How 'bout that ! Some people like that

It is only to verify the TPS is perfect . An easy test to perform and you KNOW it is good and if you have problems you know to look elsewhere . All of these tests you are doing , you want to be familiar with to the point you will be able to do this w/o having to "think" .

So , this TPS is non-linear ? What is the reason / purpose of this ?

Simple to do . Connect between A / C ( outer ) terminals of the connector . You will be using a DVOM so it doesn't matter about polarity .

IDK when it started , but the car companies settled for around August/September for the manufacture of the beginning next model year . Really oddball productions were vehicles such as the Mustang . It started in April of 64 . These are known as the 64 1/2 Mustangs . Then later productions (in the same year) were 1965 models . The easiest way to tell them apart were the first productions were generator equipped before going to the alternator equipped cars .

Well , I purchased a 2003 . Date of production is 06/2002 with all the trimmings of an 02 .

Buddy , it is a matter of opinion . My 03 has an external pump .
