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

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? |

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.
Thanks again! |

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

| 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.

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! |
