Re: 40 HP Refresh

Got the vacuum can today! :D Thanks Tram, I owe you. I'm going to try and work on it tomorrow.

Yes, the drivability has improved 110%, but I still want to try the vacuum can to see the real difference. I think it will run even better than it does with the 019. It was running poorly before the ...

Re: 40 HP Refresh

Sean, look for a Prio Mail package to hit the Mistake on the Lake Saturday or Monday, or thereabouts. No bill enclosed.

Re: 40 HP Refresh

Sean, I'm fairly sure I have a few good vac cans. I'll do some digging and if I do I can send you one.

Re: 40 HP Refresh

Hey Sean, a lot of your flat spot issues could be coming from the fact that the charging system isn't charging. I'd fix that first before driving yourself bonkers on other issues. Full electrical power can solve lots of sins , esp. on a 6v car!
