Thread: Help Ed's Incredible Honda Restoration 2025.

^ Not only girls, it seems!

^I would like to see a return to gender classifications for ice lollies

Kids used to love gender-roles, as far as I recalled, and it was not imposed reluctantly on them, as is imaginatively suggested by the revisionary cultural gestapo

They said the same thing at the base when I was in the army. I suspect an old wive’s tale.

Not difficult.

Cheers, that sounds easy enough.

I had envisaged fuel splurting out all over the place. Will take a look at removing the carb and cleaning then reinstalling it as Thursdays job. Cheers.

I don't think I can post those videos on here mate.

Hey Lulu, it's a fly wheel cover .
Has anybody ever told you that you sound remarkable similar to Irish Comedian Jimmy Cricket...

Gosh, the zingers and slapstick comedy is relentless on this post. My ribs are aching from the laughing

Quality fuel may also be an issue Lulu.

Try pissing in the tank after à few pints of herbal tea.

That should flush the gremlins out.

I was gonna ask him if he was still using the old fuel that was in the tank. Are you, Eddo?

Maybe.

Check this shiz out.

When yer a lucky mo-fo yer a lucky mo-fo.

Got round to me vacant prop-o with me cleaning team and what was under the sink...



I do believe that is a center stand.


Bye bye flower pot.

Along with a few other bits n pieces.



And this funky lil ganja pipe.




Though perhaps the ten-o was chasing the drag-o as the bottom seems heavily burned.




The tax was last up in '66, so was renewed 3 years ago, so it must have been running okay then.




If anyone's looking for a 4br house 5 mins from Nimman, 45k p/m, 44k with weekly greens. Can't do fairer than dat, can't do fairer than dat.


Will take a quick skiz at the carbo area now before heading back. See if I can sort out tomorrow's big fix.

This is the carb, right?

I know naff all about motorcycles, except how to dodge them. From my limited knowledge of engines, I'd simply have changed the spark plug and put in fresh fuel to see what happened. It works on my strimmer. I'm great at taking stuff apart. Not quite so great at putting it back together.

Yeah...wtf ? A piston, with rings and a gudgeon pin clearly visible. Are you throwing this in to have us on, Ed ? Surely not ? Don't forget to zilch the frambulator.

After:






No pain no gain.

I may not have the most starty Click in Thailand, but I've dang well got the most aromatic.

Back to business tomorrow.... if I can learn about how to remove the carb.

Synopsis.

In an effort to create a rather pathetic TD Mobile, protagonist Ed goes to buy the correct tools for the job, while hoping to replace the spark plug to see how well she sucks, blows and bangs when treated to some TLC.

But will it go to plan for the rather mechanically inept rapscallion....

Conclusion:

TLC + new spark plug unfortunately did not result in the desired sucking, blowing and banging. The TD mobile remains immobile, but shimmering clean and heavenly scented.

S01E03 drops once Ed learns about how to remove a carbeur... a carb. Hopefully resulting in more suck, blow and bang than a Mendo passport run. Flower pot stand is expected to be replaced with an actual stand of unknown, but presumed origin.
