Thanks! Sounds like its time to pull the steering wheel

The panel lights do work but I have to keep the turn signal arm depressed. I will check the bulbs. Thanks for you help Brad

Thanks

thanks... it has been sitting for a while. And actually it runs great. I am just not up to speed on the air cooled engine yet.

How do I know i have blown a head gasket? My engine oil looks a little milky but i don't have a radiator. Plus it is running a little hot

I am going to try the NGK projected tips next time!

Well I put the new plugs (BR6HS) in today! Just so you know the ones I pulled out were pretty bad. But they were the Champion's projected tip. It all worked out. The engine is humming pretty good.
