Shifts velly good! Now need to address DS vibration. Pat Allen's posts and this video were very interesting.

Sorry, the glitch ate my words again and I am too tire to type all that again.  I may edit them back in tomorrow.  Or not.  

 

I do have a clue as to when that happens.  It seems to have to do with uploading a photo and then deleting it.  The deletion takes the words with it when I click the submit button, leaving only the image(s).

Some may remember I scored a great deal on a Maxjax from Home Depot last December. Finally got the Polaris car “finished” and drivable and installed the lift today to help with the new Inka Tii….no more working on my back!

Today I ordered new motor mounts from Blunt,  Hopefully, that's something I can do myself without too much trouble. 

 

Also waxed the front part of the car while cooling off w/ some Heinekens in a hot garage . Noticed that the right front "bumper" fasteners had fallen off somehow. I'll visit the hardware store tomorrow morning for some new fasteners.

TIL how old charge indicator lights actually work… and fixed my issue where sometimes the car would not shut off for a few seconds. Added a diode to the exciter wire to prevent it from feeding back and latching my ecm relay on.

 

Nice side effect, now the L light doesn’t flash on when the key is turned off until engine comes to a stop (since there is no back feeding)

Realized I'm thinking of a different part of the harness, but thanks for something to think about.

I haven’t touched the car much in the past few months. It does run, the header is adjusted for clearance and fitted. The exhaust is connected. The driveshaft has been shortened and rebuilt. The hood has been bolted on. Tons and tons still to do, but it moved under its own power on Thursday night. Mere inches in either direction, but it’s proof that it does move.

The 3 prong plug on the back of the alt. Blue wire is exciter wire and I  needed a diode there.
