I just had the most enlightning day...
whislt removing my themoastat, i felt some fuel on my hand under the fuel tap, I thought, cause the tank was up, that an overflow was loose ( also cause the cap off for painting)..... then BANG fuel spewing out over every thing, I sqeezed the fuel to stop it i felt a big hole... FUCK,,, could not reach anything so I let it go, and grabed a lebo steak knive ( by good uncle stanley)chopped it lifted tank off tilted it sideways... fuck again... fuel poored out the top.
Upon inspection.. fuel line from tap had a 1 cm worn slit that had been waiting for me to go on AFR... then split, piss fuel, and have me and bike onfire.... ( could have been good video time, and fucking funny for spectators. FAULT,, unsure 3 suspects... the hose had also been spiral twisted,a full turn, in the spring....CUNT!
Today I had a lucky break... The GODs of ASF watching over
The hose twist also explains lean outs under boost( very very very bad) Ive had boost turn way down for a few months until i could find money and Dyno time.....
Also could explain strange heat issues that have been on /off...
It was a good learning day in the shed, without fire!! AHHHH wheres the beer, bong, etc
Cheers
Pete
