Good vid, Cheers. The zero to 8, is to let you know the tank low fuel warning light plug, below the tank, is disconnected... I took all my carb boot-spouts out, as one was so loose, I pulled it out with my fingers and the others were little better. Then threaded and plugged them all, with short domed head Alan-screws. I balanced my carbs before I put them on, by assembling them all and looking through the flaps and equalising the small light gap, as they all just began to open all together, then put them all on, and it worked fine for me. I also did away with the carb pre-heat tubes, as you only need then in extremely cold regions, as with the same engine Artic Cat snow mobiles. And just ran a by-pass tube across left to right = 2 lots of confusing clutter tubes you don't FUCKING NEED! You are right about the alarms. I have a talking one, as although It scared thieves away once, it drains your battery, If you don't use it every day.

Top video simple short and a circus clown can understand. . Ta felleh for that. I started my thundercat after 7 years of standing in a room in my home. It was completely drained out of evry thing. Added fluids a new battery and on the first press of that magic button it came bk to life. No fuel at all was left in it in 2012. 2019 all bk to normal. No issues to date. Chears

not sure if it will cause problems but you may need to blur the calendar on the wall when cleaning the jets

Bought a 1996 thundercat, was left sitting for about a year waiting for me to pass my test. Trying to start riding it managed to get it running with a new battery and seemed fine. Took the bike for a good jet wash and then the next day I'm having issues. Bike won't start and bike jolts and cuts power when riding sometimes. Not sure what to do just gonna have to take it to a garage and hope they don't fuck me over.
