- I know we've been there before, but that fuel pump over the muffler really has me bothered. When I bought my Tiger 10 years ago, the DPO has placed some sort of insulation around the pump. I'm thinki

- I think the heat shield is a good idea, but the insulation is a bad idea. The last thing you want is for a leak to soak a whole bunch of gas into the insulation, and _then_ have it set on fire by the

- The else. Yep. I'll probably bend a piece of sheet metal. One thing I'd like to do is slant the metal such that any leaking gas would drip away from the muffler. Japanese snip Yikes, let's say I don'

- Theo, et Listers, There is usually some confusion with regard to the terms "flash point" and "ignition temperature". The "flash point" refers to an equilibrium temperature of the liquid at which temp

- The fuel pump over the right muffler has the following advantages: 1. When the points stick, the access door allows you to bang of the pump with an appropriate abject to free the points and the pumps

- A good rule of thumb on tantalum caps is 5x the working voltage. So, at least 60 V rating, and preferably more, since you're dumping all of the solenoid's current into it. I haven't looked into the p

- Thanks for the 'ratings multiplier'. Do you have any Idea how BIG a 60V Tantalum is. As I recall, they are pretty small fro their capacity and rating (and expensive, relatively). Slowly at idle, afte

- [] I just did a little check in the lab; a 2.2 uF, 50V tantalum is less than 1/4 in. on a side in the surface mount package. Since the size is proportional to the capacitance and the voltage, a 0.5
