inline4 Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 I started to clean up some wiring, it took me 7 hours because I was sick. installed a radio installed a 12v power plug in place of the cigarette lighter spor cleaned up some of my fan wiring and ran an additional wire back inside after the fuse. (I have the e fan fused right at the fan) and hooked it up to the fasten seatbelt light. this way, if my fuse blows and my fan is on, the light will go out. I really wanted to re-wire my headlights, but im running out of time and im pretty beat. Quote Link to comment

SoCal Rotarito Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Wash and Wax the 510 yesterday morning. Took it for a nice canyon run, then got home and fell asleep inside. I love my 510, my home away from home. :D Quote Link to comment
jovial_cynic Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Dialed back the vacuum advance canister just a bit. It's been pinging a bit since I moved to California, but I haven't been driving it enough to merit doing anything about it until recently, so after adjusting the grub screw on the back of the vacuum canister, it's revving up nicely.
