Valve Clearance help

[audijunky]

My pig farm quotes are from the movie Snatch. Theres an old Gangster in it that has a pig farm, and does feed people he kills to the pigs. He also goes into lengthy detail about the process. I did not know about the true story behind this until I used it as a quote here. You old guys rule, learn something new everyday here.

I believe 81 is saying if his bike was a 78 model, then he would be the same age as the bike.

Whats a Trojan Horse?? Where's Trojan?








J/K HAHA got ya

[audijunky]

Oh yeah trbig sent you a PM

"One size does NOT fit all"

"Trojan Horse" refers to the size condoms that I use.
What's that other size, TRBIG... "My Little Pony"?

(I just did a Google search to make sure my reference was correct....)
""MY LITTLE PONY has given little girls a world of surprises and spontaneity...""
(How fitting!)

[audijunky]

Daaannnggg Prom, You got it like that, I am sure you must have done a couple "films". got to stick up for Trbig here since hes not here to respond
" Prom Stunt doubles for John Holmes on the weekends doing gay "films"." HAHAHa







no offense Prom

[trbig]

Since her "Fix" and since kids aren't an option/worry anymore, and since I was probably in school the last time I wore one anyway... I couldn't tell you the sizes/names/colors/flavors that are now available. I can say that whatever catagory I would fit into... it's plenty big enough to keep ME happy!! That's what really counts isn't it??

Pro, as for this..

"Trojan Horse" refers to the size condoms that I use.

It is probably the reason it keeps falling off and looks like an old tube sock hanging from a finger... Can you say "Delusional" boys and girls?

"Sock it to me!"

no offense Prom

Words don't offend me, Audijunky... but certain people do.
Tube sock.... geez....
"I got your tube sock hanging right here, Pal!"
(Wait, that's not right...)

I'm not callin' anybody a heel (or a heel-less tube sock), but...
"Oh, my manly pride.... I'd rather my wife have major surgery than for me to have to sit through a 15 minute appointment at a Dr.'s office..."
Just proves once again, TRBIG, that I'm the bigger man. (in several respects)

rereading...

You old guys rule...

Old guys...?
Now what was THAT supposed to mean? (Maybe he was referring to Diver Ray? Maybe not.)
Audijunkie... you have now been upgraded to "Certain People" status.

[audijunky]

Thanks for the upgrade Prom
I would also like to rephrase so as not to offend anyone (else)?
You oldER guys rule, meant as a compliment, please take it that way

[trbig]

*Sigh....*

I waited all day for THIS response, Pro?? I was busy all evening and couldn't get on here. So I waited with anticipation for the mighty belittling I knew was to come. The flacid response I recieved may have been expected from someone of "your age." SWMBO's "Fix" was a medical necessity not by choice. Look at it this way though.... if she hadn't had it, I may have produced even MORE offspring!

So.... what else ya got? Drink some coffee, take a Viagra and try again!

"Whinner... or is that Wiener?'

I know that you've been running behind my back complaining to others...
"Boo hoo... Prom's not insulting me in a timely manner."
TRBIG... you're not that important. You're just a hobby to me, something I do for my own amusement when I have a slow moment.

(He sees an opening in Prom's armour...)
"Blah, blah, blah... slow moment", says TRBIG.
(But it is too late)
Sorry, I've done it for you (like I have to do everything else for you) I've included a "TRBIG" quip about me and "slow moments" so you wouldn't have to think up a comment on your own. Saves you time.
Oh, my generousity knows no bounds.

"Flaccid response", huh?
Sorry, but that comment just wasn't worth getting excited over. While I'm a firm believer in meeting attacks head on, the thrust of your assault was a limp attempt at trying to arouse my anger. I'm all for engaging in stimulating social intercourse with others, but your feeble probing of my defenses makes you look like a nut and will leave you hanging, shrivelled and useless. Your attacks are just too easy to beat off.
You may think you're hard on my tail, but you're losing ground and fading away. You just can't keep it up while I can do it all night.
You need to quit dicking around, TRBIG...
Quit grovelling before greatness and get up off of your knees...
Stand tall and erect...
Recognise your own short comings and take matter's into your own hands.
And quit trying to be so cocky...

DAAAAYYYYUUUUMM, I'm outta here
Im not worthy, Im not worthy
You boys have fun


Yes I said boys

[Flatlander]

PAT IS THAT YOU?

PATRICK E. McMANUS IS THAT YOU?
I have not laughed out loud like that in a long time, THANKS YOU GUYS I NEEDED THAT!!!!!
Now about them valves?
NO, NO, NO!! Keep going!

[Flatlander]

I am having a back fire problem through the #1 carb and think I am onto something here. Possibly intake valve not closing.?. I'm going to take it back apart and recheck, thanks for the read.

[trbig]

Now that's more like it Pro! All that without actually going into Xs-ratedness... I'm impressed.

Now go take your Valium to counteract the Viagra.


Flatlander... do a compression check.


Tod

[prometheus578]

"Explain yourself."

I'm going to take it back apart and recheck

Take what back apart, Flatlander?
Have you done some work recently... without asking our permission?
Do a compression check as per TRBIG. That should tell you plenty, then check your valve clearances.

[Flatlander]

I did a compression check.... well a couple months ago, I'll do another.
At that time I beleive 125 psi +-1 psi between cylinders.
Have I ever been doing work on it receintly. Found bent valve, rebuilt head, then the thing would not start after putting all together. Thought it was the ignition control box, it had nothing wrong with it, come to find out (thanks again T.C.!).
Just a fyi if you have number one plug removed and is looking at it's spark and you see contionious spark after releasing the start button, for aprx. .25 sec., it is not the cdi! This spark thing that I am refering to led me to the assumption of what caused the bent valve. Must of by chance stopped on lobe.?.
Why it would not start then you ask..... The throttle cable! Ya that's right I did not see that the cable was not seated completely in the basket at the carbs., causing a part open throttle while starting. Not allowing proper vacuum while cranking.....I know, I know.
And now carb. back firing, which now my pea sized brain is telling me, intake is not completely shutting. It only does this while running, at low to mid rpm's might I add.
Because it had sat for awhile....Two years ago I replaced intake manifolds, and now with some either I have cracks and leaks. Did a temporary fix....we'll be needing intakes in the future.
Might not be much for you all, but for a pea sized brain, trust me it has been trying. Previous post thanks you all for the humor, much needed.
