The only way to know is to try it. You can also just flush it out with a garden hose if you don't want to build anything. The other way I have done it is to use compressed air to blow out as much water as possible (careful not to put too much pressure in the core) and then fill the core up with CLR. Let the CLR sit for a few hours, then flush it out with the hose. Repeat if needed.

Thanks! I need to figure out a few more things for in there. Not sure what else to do.

Which bolts?

I’m sorry just seen your reply the ones you put in the cardboard on the video.The first ones you take off to get to the TSS and OSS Sensors

Is it a diagram as for as the size of the bolts

@robertbattis285 I don't think there is a diagram for the bolt sizes. You can just try and run them in gently and if they bottom out, it needs a shorter one. Otherwise try watching back when I put them all in the cardboard and see if you can pick out which ones were which.

Thanks I appreciate it!

If you are talking about the shift lever, then the black clip is the slide in the valve body. If it is something else, then I'm not sure.

No, I don't have one.

@@EvanWells07 Thank you Evan for letting me know Sir. Would you know who would ??Peace too.... vf

@victoryfirst2878 I would check the junkyards or eBay. You could also buy a new one, but I'm sure those are expensive.

​@@EvanWells07 Thank you Evan !! v

That works too!

Thanks!

There should be a vacuum port behind each carb. That is where you hook each line up to.

Yep

@EvanWells07 I'm in Indy & a buddy's daughter is having this problem. I thought it was electrical with the other codes, but it seems like it is just the sensors. How much to use your shop? 😉

That's a good possibility it could be the sensors, it's common on these. I don't do any side work, and the shop is my previous employer. I do however work at Al's Transmission if you wanted we could diagnose and fix it for them.

@@EvanWells07 thank you!

I did keep the car, there a bunch of other videos on my channel of the stuff I have done to it.

Glad it helped! A warm day to do it is a plus, those plastics do not like moving without breaking when it's cold!

If you are talking about the wiring harness, then you just match the wiring color to color. The only extra part is running the extra power wire in the car later. Aftermarket radios and harnesses are pretty standardized for colors.

I'm pretty sure it has a different transmission.

I don't think there is any programming needed on these. If it is setting transmission codes, it may be in limp mode, which would be causing the issue you are describing. Check the codes and go from there.

The diameter or height?

@@EvanWells07 the height

@johnverdaguer2186 they are like 13" if I remember correctly.

That one is a 78, I also have a 79. Both have a few videos on my channel.

Is it setting any codes? With the codes it will default into limp mode like at the beginning of the video. It could be that, or it may be something else, hard to say without looking further into it. How does the transmission fluid look?

@@EvanWells07 there are no codes

@@EvanWells07 transmission fluid looks more brown than red. Level is good though

@RussellHorejsi-g9b if it is the issue like I was having it would only be in limp mode when the codes are setting. It may need the transmission rebuilt or replaced. Not saying it couldn't be something else, just without digging in, it's hard to say for sure.

@@EvanWells07 how often do the transmissions go bad. Has 200,000 miles.

Crown Victoria mine has the problem that the EQ does nothing but feed back was fixed when I used 10 gauge wire for its ground but it’s still junk to anyone that’s not 16

I ended up putting it in my daughter's car, but even that didn't work out because it doesn't have any sound output 90% of the time. If I keep turning it on and off it will end up making a loud pop sound through the speakers, then it works.

That was a gift from my dad. He deals in antiques. It was a showroom poster from back in the 90's

You can drill them out, or cut a slot in them. Did you try my trick with the punch?

Glad to hear it!

I ordered mine form eBay it’s not working I think I gotta send it back

Nice!

They are from eBay so the links are never good. If you search for switchback LED turn signal strip you will find a ton of options. I think mine are like 4-5" or something like that.

Yeah $750 isn't bad at all.

@@EvanWells07 yours turned out sweet 🤘 wish I had mechanical skills. I imagine if I buy this 22 year old bike, I'll end up learning a thing or two whether I like it or not 😂. At least I can "borrow" some of your ideas 🤘

@Indian_Outlaw_417 oh for sure there is plenty to learn. I had never been into motorcycles much until I picked this up, so even though I am a mechanic by trade, I still had to learn a fair amount about them.

Small world right

That's awesome! Have fun!

Thanks! Glad to hear it helped! As someone who does this for a living the best advice I can give is to keep things organized and take pictures for later on complicated parts. It's better to have way too much info than none. If you do decide to tackle it, feel free to reach out with any questions!

Did you turn the dimmer knob? Some LEDs won't dim, so that may be it. Did you check fuses? Also don't replace the bulb for the battery light as it can cause charging issues.

Your welcome! Hope it helped. The screw in calipers have become more and more common over the years. They can be a pain to deal with compared to traditional calipers, but if you have the tools they aren't bad.

Thanks for checking it out! The handle bars could be a bearing issue, could be that the guts under the bars are loose and need tightened as well. The air filter just gets washed with soapy water and dried before putting it back on.

Thanks!

Thanks. I didn't rebuild the rear hub because it was good, the front one was super loose and dry. I've never put bars on a varsity (never owned one) but put some on my typhoon that you can see in the background of the video. All your ideas sound good on the bike, and are worth a shot, worst case if you don't like them, change it again. That's the fun about bikes is everything is pretty inexpensive and not a ton of time to do! Thanks again for checking out the video!

Hey, thanks for the reply. Yeah, very true. You could always switch 'em out and make a real live clunker. But anyway, I'm a truck driver and I can't wait to get home and I have a specialized in the truck. That I used to be bopping around, but I'm not really into the aluminum. I'm thinking about trading that thing in or I have a cannondale frame in the shed, and I was thinking about putting those 700 rims and tires on the cannondale frame and see if I fit it. I've never tried anything with that, but I like to steal better. Anyway, thanks a lot for the. Reply back have a great day

Yes. My tank was full of rust and junk, so I just put that loop of copper tubing in it's place.

Thanks! Yeah I've been looking at parts for my old Haro... It's a little absurd, but the price of being "cool" I guess. Thanks for checking it out!

I get it's not rat rod in the traditional sense, more of the modern sense. Patina, white walls, a touch of style in the bars and grips. Still using some of the old parts with wear and character while also being slightly "stripped down". Maybe my Schwinn is more rat rod?

There is no set amount. The more you can fit in the better, but not enough to fill one bottle. You don't want to suck any of it into the engine.

yeah, you could get tyres that colour back in the 80's

@waynekerrgoodstyle I found some online that were the right color purple with gum walls, but they were a bit pricey for what I wanted.

@@EvanWells07 That's a real shame. Nearly everything is pricey these days. Anyway Greetings from Scotland 🙂

I dig the purple tires

@boogiechassis7726 Thanks, pal! If you like it then that's all I need.

It holds up amazing. It's not really intended to have clear coat over it. With proper care will last a LONG time! I have some other videos on the channel of painting more traditional signs, but unfortunately they don't typically get great views, so I have got a way from making them.

It's a F150

I agree, but I had also just changed the oil not long before the video.

These ones are kind of, they don't dim a ton before they shut off.

Thanks! I have pulled these carbs more times than I care to remember to rejet them, just trying to get the right combo. They are such a pain! I eventually figured out my rich running issues being some failed o-rings deep in the carbs. I have several videos covering the carbs and tuning alone since I know it is usually an issue on these bikes.

I never made one other than this. It's pretty easy other than removing the little cable for the PRNDL which isn't terrible but a little tricky.
