    " sea foam "

    Sorry, but I have to disagree on this. a. The MSDS for Sea Foam does not include water, and it is marketed and sold as 100% petroleum product. http://www.montanajacks.com/msds/seafoam-msds.pdf b. if water were at all good for an internal combustion engine, there would be at least one...

    Re: strange misfiring G, not including the arcing- this is about the problem I was having last year. turned out to be issues with the carb. you pointed out an oring in my carb that was probably the culprit when I posted pic's. I replaced pretty much the entire electric side before that. ...

    Coil placement?

    accidental or on purpose, point or no point, who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men . . .:confused2: if it goes back to the correct source for input it really doesn't matter what coil fires what plug. I'm just sayin' he needs to check the whole assembly, start to finish before he...

    Coil placement?

    well- if the source wire (going in to the coil) are "crossed" as well as the plug wires, then there is no issue.

    Arcing from plastic!?

    G- have you swapped sticks around to rule out/in the coil as the source ? sure you know this, but they absolutely should not be "leaking "

    vacuum throttle bodies

    /not a real answer, but: I wondered the same thing. I have a set of the R6 vacuums, the newer R6 and R1 TB's. got them pretty cheep through eBay. Am still considering possible FI swap (Microsquirt-staying with stock ignition) If I continue I will use the R6 TB's. My current best guess is I...

    Headlights?

    Mark, personally I think the pattern (for the kit I got) on "high beam" has a better close in spread than "low beam" And no, I have NO idea why heck, maybe they the solenoid is wired backwards form the factory. :ummm::ummm: There is no increase in light with HID bi-xenons, they have a light...

    Headlights?

    you won't need to do anything to the bucket for a non Bi-xenon setup. the solenoid on the bi's are a bit too long for our stock housing.

    Headlights?

    http://www.vmaxforum.net/showthread.php?t=7109&highlight=ballast I have a bi-xenon kit, 35w, 4000k set up. the factory lens works well enough. whichever kit you get, make sure it is a slim ballast kit. I recommend staying below 4500k light temp. above that the light starts heading blue...
