thankyou :-) im hoping to get back to work on it very soon

most lickly it will but with gear reductions and wheels half the size of the bandits im hoping it will just move along gently dont want any speed in it yet lol

carbon build up is mainly caused from rich running if the fuel mixture is set right carbon is minimal.

the best cure is to prevent as much as posible. get your mixture bang on i use a gunsons colortune its a clear sparkplug you can see the colour of detonation in the chamber, and also i swear by redex can find it on any motorshop shelf in the uk not sure about other countries, i have an 850 volvo...

hi if you have a spare nut try this has wroked for me in the past. cut the nut in half i.e looking down through the hole make sure you do it point to point of the hex clean off any burs then put the two halfs around the thread of the shaft past the worn end, MAKE SURE YOU LINE THE NUT UP...
