Cobbled the carb linkage back together last night, and took the Tunebug out for a 1/2 hour spin around the town. Nice how much fun you can have in a Sprite at slow speeds. On my bike, the roads seem very slow at 45. In the Bugeye, that's a sporting pace!
Did a little exploring, and headed up a canyon road I hadn't been on before. Few rough patches of pavement, but a nice twisty road--at least down hill. Uphill was a slow, hot process. On the way down one of the bumps must have knocked something, since I saw the tach needle fall down to zero. Checked the connection at the generator, and it was loose. Tightened it up, but it's still DOA. Something else for the autumn work schedule.
Thinking more seriously about starting a 1275 fund. So much fun to drive, but not up any sort of hill, which is unfortunate when one lives in the mountains. Don't need more top speed, but could use plenty more power to get up those hills! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
