Re: PO has me PO'd
I got rid of my TPI setup and went with a Holley Sniper. I like it.
Might be an option for you? Looks like someone was a little rough on that heater hose nipple... |

Re: PO has me PO'd
I was looking for the cool factor, but you're right , there maybe better systems out there!
Note the red arrow, cracked intake manifold. That's what happens when you use a tapered easy out, I was able to get a hacksaw blade in there to cut some of the threads and roll back the fitting with a punch. Hopefully I can have it tigged Just one of my SNAFUs. on to the shaft bushings for the quadra jet

Re: PO has me PO'd
Installing throttle shaft bushings, grind the staked screws or you WILL snap the heads off. mark blades for location and direction

Re: PO has me PO'd
 [url=https://flic.kr/p/2g2UuTv]20190526_063805Be careful!, what appears to be a slotted screw is not, just a spring holder in the slot. The silver screw does come off for disasembly. In my application both shafts had to come out for the bushing kit to be used these shafts are very delicate, so don't force things when you disassemble

Re: PO has me PO'd
Still Waaaaay more patience than I have bud. I have none when it comes to carb rebuild or all that wiring you were doing for the other style. I am gritting my teeth not really wanting to do a harness upgrade on my panel even though I know it should be done.

The kart does look like a blast.
You are going to have them wire up the FAST fuel injection? |

Re: PO has me PO'd
No way dude. Don't give up on it Jim. I've taken a ridiculous numbers of steps backwards on mine over 11 years. You've done so much. Don't farm it out now. Take a break, come back to it. Keep making progress.

Re: PO has me PO'd
AJ, thanks for posting up, but time is my constraint, I'm 67 going on 68 in August, and I'm afraid I won't get to drive it much as I get older. So, I've made the choice to get it worked on by someone who understands the system...
For me, it's like putting a string on a yo yo, when you don't know what a string or yo yo is or does, it just doesn't make sense to me, and trust me when I say I've tried, I've sourced, I've read, sourced, and read some more, gleamed thru countless wiring diagrams, to no avail. If someone had done this before, I would have been able to ask questions, but no one has You've been a great source of info. over the years, and I consider you my friend, sorry to let you down, but it just has to be this way

[QUOTE=jaros44sr;8549678]Richard, got the battery hold down yesterday, thank you. Can I at least pay for postage and paint?
BTW, have'nt seen any kids playing with yoyos lately for me to ask, if you do, get me an email addy QUOTE] Jim Glad it arrived. No need, consider it a small contribution to the build. TBH I probably would need help with the yoyo nowadays lol Richard
