You're right FMtB but I can't think of anything else :? Unless it's the wrong cable?

Thanks,

Another seizure would have really made my day. :D
It must be the oil pump, because on the AR there are two at the splitter that attatch to both sides of the
carb pully wheel and a third seperate cable that also comes from the throttle body.

I'm not with it today...I was so pissed off earlier - I accidentilly snapped the the thread of the main jet off in the carb :o
Had another lucky escape and managed to fish it out, I knew I shouldent attempt anything else while I was
in a mood neven an easy job like re- attatch the cables :roll:

I keep telling myself this is supposed to be fun and relaxing :D



Cheers

throttles are already badly sticking. I need to order new ones as these are fraying, but I have spent too much money on it this week. Ah well I have beer in hand now at least Image
