you are getting to know me then
i know there are some sickos who do like the smell of gas but not me, this last time my monte fuel lines went it was getting gas all over the garage and my shop clothes ended up soaked in it and so between the first time i fixed it and the second time i couldnt smell anything but gas and couldnt figure out if it was still leaking.

Whatever you do, don't smoke a cigarette while trying to figure it out.

i think i got it figured out finally but it still smells in the garage and at negative temps with the stupid wind we have had not sure even if a left the doors open if it would dissipate. maybe this weekend when it warms up i will leave the doors open a while.

went and started my big bore kit scoot today. i was amazed. it started first kick after sitting since october in 14*F. no battery and the enricher is removed.
i plan on painting it, jetting it and upgrading the charging system before the riding season. also thinking about retrofitting a cell phone mount to the gauge cluster. i dont trust the chinese speedo.
