lalala lala... i gotta be me....

some jobs you just dont want to do... Like sound proofing a party wall...

this 2nd week started, shak'n and a ach'n with a dose of 48 hour flue... 

later drag myself out of sick bed to finish the poxy job, fitting the last bit of plasterboard lopped off part of my thumb...

two days later I get up early to do a little cleaning job on a saturday and its projectile vomiting time...

and then damage the heel of my foot so badly,  I can't walk...

So fuck it all...

and then this morning my invite arrived...

just sayin...

and one hundred and forty miles later...a car park in Dorking, Surrey...

Currently one out of seven days are Ok here on the east coast, a bright clear sky but the damn wind never dies...

postman rings twice...

 got the shirt... not the heads...

32 years old and worn out...

 strange, it fits, with no filing or cutting...

safe kickstand at last... 

and finally... the postman rings three times this week...

I have spent a lot of money on plugs over the past year in the vain hope that it will resolve the bitches crappy starting. 

NGK's (an old favourite), HD Brand (She seems to like these, made by champion) Champion's (not used these much as it would not start at the time) NGK Iridiums (liked these, seem to use less gas) Accel's (not had much use, would not start in Jan this year)

I put in the big intermediate jet (29.5) for the super E, hoping that the bitch would not only fire on the fourth kick cold as usual but also keep running!

Last week she would not start at all, just the odd pop.

Off with the pushrod covers and re-did the pushrod adjustment - they were spot on.

I changed the plugs from my reliable? HD Brand to the NGK iridiums.

Finally she starts and we go for a ride, stop three times and three non starts later, just a cough out of the carb, without using choke.

So grabbing at straws, I go on www. Shovelhead.US, the consensus seems that those who 'know' use Bosch platinums. 

So here they are and its snowing...
