I had a persisent and long running brake fluid leak that I finally pinned on the master. Swapped that and fixed!

I also had a vacuum leak because the throttle plate screws were all loose on the bottom of the carb. I tried blue locktite on those. Hopefully that works out.

Rusty has been running well since, which is good because my primary commuter is down waiting for parts. I've been driving Rusty on my 84 mile round trip commutes.




Evidence of shade tree. One screw was rounded out so I turned it into a flat head.
