Question about 75 cams and C5 ignition

[canuckxxxx]

My vacuum advance doesn't work on my '82. If I put C5 on do I still need to fix vac adv for best performance?

Thanks
Brian

No Brian. The beauty of the C5 is 4 pre programmed advance curves so you no longer need any mechanical/vacuum advance :good:

Brianpa has been experimenting with the different curves with his ride:

Might have to go to a cheaper brand of cat food (we don't have a cat either) :smilie_happy:

Just remember to plug up the open hole on the carb. I used a spare 6mm x 20mm bolt and bottomed it out so it doesn't leak. It makes people look and ask questions. :mrgreen:

By the way, here is the full blown report on switching the curves: https://www.classicgoldwings.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8312

Next weekend, I hope to put it to longer test with a trip pulling the trailer to Vermont to pick up another Vetter Fairing and all of my camping gear.

Brian, if you need a Vetter faring, mine is available with lowers and the cycle sound kit! I don't want to discourage a trip to Vermont (because that is an awesome trip), but if the trip is just for a faring I can offer mine! :yes:

Thanks Gerry, but there is a problem with yours... it is newer and I want an older one. I have been looking for a Vetter 2 or Vetter 3 for a while and I found one over on NGW. It's already paid for. I just need to pick it up. arty:

Hi-jack complete!

I have re-read that several times and it just doesn't make any sense! oh2: I left a piece of the vacuum hose on the carb and shoved the bolt into the hose as far as I could get it. When I couldn't move it any more, I put a socket on my drill and threaded the bolt into the hose until the head of the bolt was flush with the end of the hose. No leaks...

Brian, I've got the single Weber and all vacuum connections are plugged. :moped:

Thanks :thank_you:
Brian

Y'know what sometimes thread hijacks work. I'm just glad we've stopped talking about whacking things off. :thank_you:

That guy in Oz and someone in CA lead us astray from time to time. :mrgreen:

 

[Ansimp]

Is CA short for Canada Brian? :smilie_happy:

 

[brianinpa]

It could be if it fits the discussion. :hihihi:

But...we're all angels in California! There's a city, and a baseball team named after us! We'd never lead anyone astray! By the way, I was working on my brakes the other day and... :mischief:
