washed the gunk off of her and pulled the tank and airbox tonight. couldnt verify the operation of the fuel pump but im not too sure about the conditions required for one to fire up on the old carbed bikes. hell, when i had the cane' i didnt even realise it had one. at that point i was about ready to quit for the night but between the jersey redneck in me and the booze i decided to try and get it running by pouring a delicate mix of ten parts regular unleaded one part miller lite directly down the carb throat. and after countless backfires, and about 7 carb fires (blew em out), i got it to run for about two seconds. sounded great! then my beer bottle ran out of gas and she let off a backfire that probably had all the vatos across the street strapping up so i called it a night
