WEBER was installed! (The original blog was written on 30th Sep. 2007)

Despite the WEBER was already assembled, I was busy recently and could not find the time.
But today I could manage to find a time and installed the WEBER on the engine!



I also wanted to try the engine start.  But I found that the cam cover was dirty and for some reason I began to remove the cam cover to clean it.  As the result it became dark and I withheld to start the engine at night.


I became very hungry so we enjoyed a barbecue with “Shichirin” for our dinner.
(“Shichirin” is a small portable stove for cooking with charcoal made by clay.)

After drying 1 day , it became like this....

Disassembled the clutch master cylinder again. Now I can do it very quickly because I disassembled brake master and clutch master cylinders many times J Heated and removed the solder at the piston hole. I used the soldering iron instead of the burner because I heard giving too much heat on piston should be avoided. In this time , according to the advice from my friend , the repair method is to screw in the thread with strong adhesive into the hole , then grind the thread head to make the piston surface flat.  In order to do it I bought bolts and a grinding stone at the hardware store. Cutting the bolt to adjust the length to fit the hole depth.  Engrave the minus groove at the cut bolt head to make screwing in possible ...
