Looks a bit restricting. My rube goldberg was at least functional - and you're hose adapter was pretty cool. Now for what - $28 bucks you can get a new one - with screen!

More "stuff"....... :roll:

Went to check the timing, turned the rotor bolt, or tried to, as it was finger tight. So that got locktited and tightened correctly. Checked the timing, 2 cylinders were wayyy advanced.
Checked tranny oil, not even on the stick. Right cylinder smoking bad, so probably a seal issue.
And this...........

Yes John, I have an H2 guy near me that has a clutch so stiff he will not ride in high traffic areas or during peak traffic times. It is amazing. I offered to give him a good used clutch cable and install a ball bearing pusher and new 74/75 style seal for free. Nope he would rather suffer.
Just buy the new stuff, 10 years ago YES! we did not have a choice but now we have more available to us than ever. Put the duct tape and bubble gum down there MacGyver. Its your life we're talking about here.
