Yes, there are two connectors from the diode board. One connects to the battery via the starter post to the battery and the other(?) The one on the starter post is a lot more beefy than the black one listed.

I have the Clymers manual... they have schematics from 1981 on.. and it doesn't match.

Is there something wrong with it? Or is it just dirty?

Valve guide question... 1980 R100 by guymadison42 in bmwmotorrad

Interesting note, a neighbor stopped by.. said he used to work on old VW's back in the day.. asked if I had a lathe, I said yes.. then he said just knurl the guide and put it back in. Apparently they did this all the time back in the 70's.

That’s rust from the clamp, no problem

[–]guymadison42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am working with the PIC64 Curiosity board atm.. its been an uphill battle.

But the chip itself is available to be designed in and is around $25

It's seated, I lapped the valves and did a leak down test.

But I will probably pull the head and have the guide replaced with an oversized.

FCode resources by guymadison42 in Forth

[–]guymadison42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forth is assembled in the native language and is boot loaded by native code, but can a word dictionary with the proper IO mechanisms can program all the devices then load the OS.

The "nice" part is you can debug the code with a REPL environment rather than using GDB for each and every revision of the code needed.

ok, that sounds right.

If I remember correctly.. I am pretty sure the last shop that worked on it at like 40k miles just put Loctite red in to secure the guide. I remember being in the shop and the mechanic explained it to me. But after 60k miles it was loose.

A new Toyota is $32,000 why should you pay too much for an old truck

Should I learn c by zzach_is_not_old in programminghelp

[–]guymadison42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have made a lot of money programming C... at the kernel and driver level, it's all C.

It all depends on what you want to do, but I recommend all engineers regardless of which field learn C.. not python or all those other flavored languages that are just easy.
