I installed HID's two yrs ago and have loved them. I used 5000k....H4...9003...Hi/Lo bulbs. This has worked great for me. The complete install has been explained on the forums. Enjoy the ride..  |

The windshield needs to be cleaned with a cleaner/polish that is used on aircraft windshields. The product that is used on Plexiglass will do the trick, such as Black Lab's All Kleer for aircraft windshields. I puchased mine from Aircraft Spruce and it really works. The webb site is .aircraftspruce.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> .aircraftspruce.com. I recovered my seat a few years ago and just keep it clean with a damp cloth. No special product that will cause it to be slick. Enjoy the ride... |

ps...it just takes longer to come loose....on the centerstand move the wheel... side to side to make sure the wheel is tight...not a great system...

It may be time to adjust the valves....no compression or low compression will affect the fuel pump, causing no fuel flow. No vaccum...no fuel...
