Found it under the tank between frame tubes on my '77 Vert. Was a SOB to remove. Replaced with a Wells Mfg. VR650 regulator from Auto Zone. All good now....
A while back I found out all the sizes and then promptly lost the list :-). I think Greg got it all and its up here somewhere though. Â Rebuilding a 'Vert...
Hi. Does anyone on the list have any good u-joint crosses for sale? My u-joint needs at least one 49mm cross, and so far MG Cycle, Moto Int., and Harpers don't...
Order a new shaft from Ago's. Even if you do replace the coupling you'll still have another old one waiting to fail and the splines and all the other crap will...
So who is Ago ? And how much for a new shaft ? I heard about the new crosses with the grease fittings. ... From: peter roper To: MGconvert@yahoogroups.com ...
Please tell me more about the .005" & .007" valve clearances. And any chance you had a pinched gas line ? ... From: mtiberio To: MGconvert@yahoogroups.com ...
no chance on the pinched fuel line. I run the dual output carb banjos, so my fuel line resembles a big "U". One line down from each petcock directly to the...

Hey I had exactly the same problem with my carb Cal 1100. It was making me crazy since it had been running correctly just before. After a frustrating search...
Thanks for your help, Pete and Greg. The engine is out, the clutch is apart, and everything is getting cleaned up awaiting the arrival of the needed seals et...
I've been using Lucas gas treatment/top-end lubricant to help prevent carbon build-up and reduce cylinder wear. It's a carb cleaner, too. I also use it in the...
Man, I've been posting too often lately. I apologize! While I'm fixing oil leaks on the vert, I want to fix a stripped oil pan bolt hole. It's one of the holes...
Hi Mike, I don't know if that is the best solution, but here is an alternative. When I converted my Ambassador to run an internal oil filter as per the later...
whoa, do it right. get (or borrow) a 6mm helicoil kit. remove the oil pan, put the bike on the side stand. if that doesn't get it over far enough, use your...
Ok, what about an unvented fuel tank? ... From: mtiberio To: MGconvert@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, July 13, 2008 7:16 PM Subject: [MGconvert] Re: Eldovert...
I opt for the 6mm helicoil. I did all ( 14 ? ) of them when I had my engine out. Did the front timimg cover, too. McMaster Carr sells a nice kit in a...
Well I finally got to work on my own bike Sunday. Finally got the floating calipers working the way I wanted. Turned out the pads were too hard and despite...
nope, not a clogged gas cap. when I pulled the tank and sloshed gas in it, I could hear the hissing of the pressure coming out of the cap vent. I then ran...
I have an intermittent short in my kill switch. Anyone purchased one of the left side, kill/start switches from MG Cycle? My Vert is a cop model, with the...
Weird problem (cause). I bet it's not really fixed yet. I think you may have an intermittant problem - after all, something caused the symptom. And you...

Hey Dave I've used Uni filters for years with no problems. There was a thread on another list a few years ago about Uni filters having a proclivity for...
I've put Uni's on both my Guzzis without needing to re-jet. My ambo has backfired many times over the years and has never burned the Uni. My old Honda came...
