Re: Rear master cylinder seal kit needed

I used one off of a Concours 1400 around 2010-ish. I think upto 2014 is the same.

Wanted: bad cdi/ignitor

Looking for cdi/ignition box that is preferably bad in the transistor area, but with good programmed chip.

I will be more invasive that the repair by FF. So, I really don't want to do this to a good box.

Let me know if anyone has one doa for a decent price.
Thanks,
Mike

Re: OEM Fuel Pressure Regulator modification??

Keep in mind that the fpr is boost dependent, so just reving the engine is not likely going to change fuel pressure much.

Re: fuel pressure.

Wait you are using a fpr fom an 1100? Well I think they are somewhat close to one another, but the turbo one is also boost dependent.

Re: performance fuel filter

Oh sorry I didn't even think of original location.
I have the filter parallel to the pump with a 180 degree fitting between the 2.

Re: performance fuel filter

This the one I use:
https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-230118-b

Cleanable stainless filter disk up to 100 microns. They also have one with replaceable 10 micron paper filter.

Of course it was only about $25 when I bought it 20 years ago

Re: Gasket Removal

There is some sort of gasket remover goo that helps. Last time I used it I re- goo-ed 3 days straight with lite scraping, so it did help

Make sure that check valve at the tank return is operating and not stuck.

Re: Fuel cap gasket

Below is the title of one I bought off eBay for 26 USD shipped. I took it apart to get the gasket and put it on my cap and it closed fine. But my tank has not been on for months so I can't say that I have ran it yet.
