  • We show the engine pressure checking setup and solve some leaks. And lots of wrenching on the sled and maybe even a quick EFI diagnostic.

    just because I'm paranoid, after I double-knot the rope on the recoil side, I also flood it with Superglue, then hit it with some accelerator. It's a good way to guarantee that it'll never come apart on that end.

    I can't get enough RXL content LOL. I have a Blue 94 and I can't wait to get it running and ride it.

    I just did a carb changeover from an EFI on a 93, it's the first trouble free ride I've had with it in 15 years, good luck with yours!!

    I'm in Elk River and have a Hardinge lathe. I can make the carb boot plugs.

      You should make some and sell them. I don't have time. I know there's people that want to buy them.

      @nuttersspeedshop absolutely. Did you use abs? Delrin? If you'd be interested in sending me dimensions, we could partner up and have them available on your merch site.

    Cheers guys 🍻🍻🍻
    First off, where’s the darn snow 🙄
    Wow! She’s coming together! Glad you showed the pressure check, lots to learn there! Thanks!
    Is Tommy thinking of doing anything to it mod wise, or just leaving it stock? Once again those trailing arms look really sharp!
    Todd did a good video about a year ago on RXL troubleshooting/code reading etc.
    Good to see the whole crew there!
    Cheers 🍻

      Leaving it stock.

    • @nuttersspeedshop
      @nuttersspeedshop  Před 6 měsíci

      If you get the service manual from vintage snow dot com you don't need a video about code reading. Just one of the things I've learned about RXLs. They are really not bad to deal with.

    • @IndyGuyRob
      @IndyGuyRob Před 6 měsíci

      And when they are working like they should they are a pretty sweet sled to drive!
      Sounds like it’s time to get out the cardboard beer case to start a list for Princeton! Item #1-early 90’s RXL for Nutter!

    Mmmmm Brake clean.

    • @nuttersspeedshop
      @nuttersspeedshop  Před 6 měsíci

      The problem is that if you have any chips open when you are spraying brake clean they taste like brake clean later.

    Good catch on the wire. Been looking for a project. You would think with the lack of snow there would be better deals out there but I havent found too many. Maybe it's just easier to watch someone do a project, LOL. Cheers!

      I've heard prices are coming down. I guess we will see at ERX this weekend.
