Default Re: Columbia Par Car/Harley aka MishMashMobile

Mine has no oil injector and is still running off the fuel in the tank from the PO. He said he always mixed to 85:1. I really didn't NEED to burn out the exhaust but for some reason decided it was a good day to do it as preventative maintenance (and try to fix things that were not broken). It smokes some but I need to remove and clean the carb, check compression and all the other things one should do with an old machine like this. Hoping this weekend I'll have time to check into it a little further. Maybe the motorcycle shop will have some more suitable gasket material. I don't mind making my own but I'm not spending $20 to make my own. I know, I'm a cheapskate. :)
