ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    I am not positive if it is the motor. I will have to search on how to test it unless you have a method to share.

    Also not sure about the nylon reed. Where is that located? I will look at it more closely this week.

    Weather is warming up a bit and rain has washed away most of the "salt" here so the car will come out of hibernation soon.

    Thanks Hiptech!

      When the weather is nicer I will take a closer look at this unit and see what's going on with it.

      For now, today the battery was dead, Brittany has been hibernating through the winter and apparently the battery also decided to go into a deep sleep.

      Put it on the charger for three hours, slow charge, came back flipped the switch to jump start and she fired right up and purred.

        Glad it's coming together. Eric does a great job on Honda repairs, he's an excellent resource.

        As for the battery, a trickle charger is your friend. It's easier on the battery to maintain it's voltage than let it drop to zero and try to resuscitate it... I've had good luck with the "BatteryTender" brand. Costco seems to have good prices on these. A 4.5 amp model is what they usually carry.

          Many years ago in another life I attended Barrett Jackson auction frequently and there was always a vendor selling a sweet battery tender that would trickle charge only when it sensed the battery needed it.

          You kept it hooked up and on but did not have to worry about it. I wish I could remember what brand that was.

          The charger I have now is Die Hard brand and I got it back around 2006 I think. I hook it up every other few weeks on I think 2 amp setting "deep cycle" "maintenance free" and leave it for a few hours.

            Did some searching and I found that the battery charger I have is this model. It has worked well for me, have had it since 2006 or so I would guess.
