American Made Deerskin Gloves Soft as silk, tough as nails.
Bosch injectors are not prone to leaks. One of the upper O-rings had a minor chip out of it, but should not have leaked. Some- times if an injector leaks around the base it’s cause is a loose pintle seat. That can also cause an intermittent misfire because the pintle shaft will bind. The seats were fine. I ran some extended flow tests to see if there were any case leaks between the body and molding. That looked good also. If one of the injectors has slow leakage it can be hard to detect on the bench, so if you have any problems let me know and I’ll send you a replacement set. As for the hesitation and idle you can rule out injectors as a cause, the flow rates and patterns cleaned up perfectly. There will be a full flow report in the pack- age.” (To understand how the pintles work, Mr. Injector has a good video on You Tube entitled “Leaking Fuel Injectors Caused by Loose Pintle Seats.) With my injectors reconditioned, I could eliminate faulty injectors for causing the hesitation and idle issues. I removed a lot of black engine gunk
around the throttle tubes and thought about replacing them. Then, when I removed the air filter and air box I found a mouse nest and realized I’d been riding my K bike around the country with extra cargo for the past two to three years!
It must have been
an itty-bitty mouse to squeeze its way inside my air box.
