Re: PO has me PO'd
Thanks for thinking of me Edd, PP or PMO? Should we drop this down to the classifieds, so i dont get my thread locked......that would suck, after all these years!
Great job you did on your fuel filler, really helps to give people options

Re: PO has me PO'd
Your welcome Jim. My desktop took a leave of absence and work has been scarce lately so it just sits waiting to be fixed.. The only time I have access anymore is when I can catch one of my kids NOT using their laptop. I put a stop to my wife's overseas travels because of the increased dangers. Sending you and all yours the wishes of a Very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Goooooood morning America! Got to work on the return side of the fuel lines.....i like the way the color matches my other hoses, son hates it, says heater hoses should be black
 20140104_095451 by james_jaros, on Flickr  20140104_095321 by james_jaros, on Flickr Waiting on an additional 10 feet of proclassic hose from Jegs(email gift certificate from one of my sons), 8" of snow seemes to have held up delivery Yeah Dale, i couldnt believe it happened either, but it did fly off at sub sonic speed, damage couldve been much worse, if it had been aimed at my eye.... Yeah, i know my frame rails are rusty, but that will be addressed another day...... I may notch the power steering pump bracket, to allow the hose to have less of a kink Next project, build bracket to mount relay for ECU......FAST says i can load a blank program, so on star can shut my truck down in the event that it is tolen

Re: PO has me PO'd
Nice work as always Jim.
“So on star can shut my truck down in the event that it is stolen” I like this idea. I wonder if anyone makes a plug in system that shuts the ECM down remotely with a cell phone or App.? I don’t need to subscribe to anything else that requires monthly installments but I would like to be able to disable my truck to deter thieves. These things aren’t very difficult to start without a key. |

.....but, i have a extra relay i could use for that function. Yeah i know services cost money, but it has saved me from getting lost more then once, even allowed me to pay the bill over the phone when the wifey forgot. Just gotta buy the system, and see how i can mout it up. Since i dont have air, the area above the radio looks like a prime spotIf you hear of any apps, let me know....my smart phone is smarter then me! Got the last ten feet of fuel hose, so i will be finishing up that shortly..... Your truck looks amazing, great work. You Michigan guys really have the nack, really like where you put the heater switches

Re: PO has me PO'd
Had a couple minutes to work on the fuel lines.....make sure you keep an eye at a certain point on the braid, as you tighten the nut. This will tell you if the fuel line is being pushed out by the clamping barrel. I add a light oil( 3in1) to the threads and cone to help with assembly. What seems to work for me.....holding and pushing the hose, put the barrel against the leading edge of your wooden workbench, using a rachet wrench rotate the barrel counter clockwise untill it seats against the inside shoulder
Still have to build a separator for the two hoses to keep it off of the power steering tank Also, found an app to remote start wifeys Malibu  20140110_112652 by james_jaros, on Flickr

Re: PO has me PO'd
That duel sport looks like a ton of fun! I am bikeless at the moment but will never let my MC endorsement expire. You never know when the right opportunity may find you. The last duel sport I had was a mid ‘90s xr600 probably better than ten years ago. The jeepster is way, way on the back burner but I am really looking forward to working on it. My new year’s resolution was to not buy any more projects.

600 ccs mustve been fun, i only have 400, and thats enuff for me. Although, a turbo kit is not out of the question You can always call the jeepster an investment and not a project, so as to keep your resolution intact Sheesh! just went pink

Re: PO has me PO'd
Mornings progress: had some time to work on the fuel pump extension rods, i need roughly 13 1/2" from mounting flange on pump to the bottom of fuel tank. I used some 3/8" hard copper to get the height, spacer is between the lower part of the pump and spring
I like to use a old fitting in vise, so as not to damage a fitting im using. Make sure to leave enough tubing to swing your mini cutter around past the siphon tube Now, i just have to extend the pump harness  20140114_125452 by james_jaros, on Flickr  20140114_131333 by james_jaros, on Flickr
