With my track record so far, I'd be hesitant to try and remove the final drive and swingarm without causing more problems. Smile

Shorting the clutch switch wires seems to be a popular solution from a ...

Ok...last post on this topic. I spent about 4 hours this past Sunday trying to remove the starter to do the cleaning, but I couldn't get enough clearance around the ABS and alternator cap to get the h ...

That makes sense. I just whacked the relay and it didn't stop it. Since it's so irregular, the starter is next I guess. Looks like my weekend is planned now.

Thanks for the assistance!

That makes sense about the turn signal, but could that also be affecting the starter?

I swear to all that's holy and good, I am at the bitter end with this.

I've got a spring to work and the signal cancel is good again, however I cannot determine why the right turn signal keeps turn ...

I'll have to pass along this gem, I forget who I heard it from. When I was trying to troubleshoot the electrical system on my 74 MZ I first encountered Lucas electrics.

That's an excellent idea, I didn't think of that. I'll go through my junk drawer when I get home and see if any of them fit the bill.

Thanks!

Wow...that's awesome! I had you down for domestic microbrew first, now you're upgraded to imported/whatever your favorite liquor is. Wink

Thanks again!

Makes sense. I'll see if I can _carefully_ take that apart without losing more springs.

PM sent.

I'll definitely provide the beers if I make it up there, or if you end up down here. Smile

After my 95 K1100LT sat up for a while, I got it back running with some fuel pump issues, however I had a problem with my right turn signal sticking. After I opened up the switch housing, I was able t ...

Ok, after I let the old pump soak for about 5 days, but it wouldn't pump when I applied 12 volts. I went to a couple of parts stored and located an equivalent to the purolator pump that Flying Duck us ...

makes sense. I just called my local shop and they have one in stock, so I'll pick it up after work.

Thanks!

Yeah, I made sure I read it a few times, I was shocked as well. Hopefully there's something that could be adapted to still fit and flow enough.

While I'm waiting for the pump to hopefully unstick, I'll give a brush a go at the cap gunk.

The heat shrink is a great idea, I'll pick some up.

As for the flapperectomy, I'm torn. It's a tota ...

Oh well, guess I should have researched it a bit more. I'll let it sit overnight and siphon it out tomorrow.

Thanks for the removal instructions, I'll do that tomorrow. One of the extractors is 7/ ...

Very good point. If I can't get cap screws off, I'll just pull the tank and bring that. I'm going to try a screw extractor first, but if that fails I'll do this.

Thanks!
