C = Cagiva

Ok this is my solution to the problem and it works very well. Get yourself a 12v Rechargable battery and charger from maplin/e bay etc, connect a car cigar lighter socket to it. Then you can plug in your phone car charger, or anything else that has a cigar style plug into it, spot light...

I've got one and I love it. From the factory the blade is pretty blunt, but once its sharpened it performs well. The beech handle can be sanded down to suit, I wrapped mine with paracord to improve the grip. Its not too heavy either, so it doesn't hammer your wrists after 10mins use ! I guess...

Just bought one, thanks for the link Biker.

Ahh yes, but the False Widow Spider is slowly making its way towards your part of the country !! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/4248930/False-widow-spider-spreading-across-Britain-puts-woman-in-intensive-care.html. I found one in my garden the other day !!

My advice would be to look at the various commercially available outboard mounts, and then copy the design, and make it yourself. Doesn't look that difficult to make. All you need is some thick plywood, and maybe some copper pipe out of a skip job done !! HTH

I dont know why I stated the obvious !! But ive learnt something new, and youve got your problem sorted, so its all good.

Ive had that before, not when trying to reinstall, but when ive tried to start mozilla. I found that restarting the laptop was the only way to get it working. HTH

The tube that the cleaning wire goes into, is purely a guide so that it lines up with the jet correctly in order to clean it when you turn the fuel valve off (obviously a small amount of fuel may travel along it). The fuel actually goes around the outside of that tube following the spriral wire...

How does the lack of Wire cause the gen tube to coke up ? I agree that without it, it cant clean the jet.

Good stuff, no problem. But what is RGR ?

Let me know how you get on with it Mike. Lf

Save your money, try your own generator first without the wire. If that wire controls the fuel flow id be very surprised. I thought that was what the fuel valve was for. Heres some pics, and a small amount of info...

Thanks for the feedback, I think I will go for one. I guess I can always go over the stitching again to make it more robust. Like you say, it does look like a handy belt bag thingy :) Thanks again Lf

It should work without it, but make sure you clean the jet on the generator, and if you do end up getting a new generator, remember that the wire needs to be attached the the valve before you can screw the fitting onto the valve body. Ive spoke to a few people who have previously had these...
