I am curious if anyone has found 90 degree spark plug boots that fit onto the plugs with carbs and the CFR throttle linkage.
When the wires come straight up, out of the shrouds they have to bend and rest against the bottom of the carbs. I am guessing there is some leakage of the spark with the wires rubbing like that. Any ideas? |

QUOTE are there any particular reasons you mounted the cable linkage on the rear of the carbs and the coil way back on the tin? I'll put the clip/holders in, but if I pulled on the rear wires enough to make them not touch the linkage, they would have a serious kink in them. I tried the cable linkage on the front and it seemed to interfere with multiple things. As for moving the coil: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i366.photobucket.com-10819-1367906573.1.jpg) Brant noticed the coil location and mentioned that it is not in the flow of air. I wasnt aware that they got particularly hot... |
