In between the cable end mounts just under the left side of the tank there is a couple of screws that holds the bracket on. Just take those screws out and the hole thing will come loose enough to allow you to pull some slack on the grip end. It's not much but just enough. Once the grip is hooked then re-attach the bracket to the carbs. You don't even have to take the tank off. Don't loosen the cable lock nuts now or you will have to reset the length again. Just dis-mount the bracket that they are in as a unit. Stan " Old enough to know better, yet young enough to keep on doing it!"

If both are cold, the thermostat may be stuck. sometimes a cooling system will burp if air is trapped in a low spot. refill the system, top off the overflow tank to the correct level and see if it does it again. these are generic ideas that are the starting place when diagnosing a cooling system problem. ride safe, ride often duke

Coolant not solved let it idle for 30 min no fan and no collant leak and no idiot light hmmm there is fluid in the resivoir dunno i'll try more ideas Took it down the road a couple miles rode around my block a few times and then the fan kicked on still no collant puking. gonna drain the coolant and refill and then ride awhile and see if it does it again, who knows maybe a fluke? -Chris Harley Rider: I can't ride with Jap Crap!

I don't remember what the conditions were at the time, but it has only done it the one time. It also puked a small amount of final drive oil one time. Same as the above, never did it again.

Posts: 211 01/28/06 10:46 PM Second Officer	I might, I am curious to is it still silicate and phosphate free coolant that will work fot the T? In other posts those are the only 2 points of neccesity in Coolant for the T. I made the mistake of reading all of the prev. posts and am now thouroughly confused about it. -Chris Put The Lord Jesus First and God will bless you Harley Rider: I can't ride with Jap Crap!
