Lack of grunt...
« on: 21 December 2008, 00:42:57 »
Hi again folks...

Not sure if this is related if my other posts, but...

My Miggy seems quite a bit down on grunt.

As I've said before - the 2nd from the left outlet on the breather box has broke off, but am going to fit a new un tomorrow.

Is this likely to fix things?  :-? Or is it going to be a multi-ram problem?

I can "tickle" the accellerator, and she picks up ok, but if I plant it - well, there is nowhere near as much grunt as there was from my last 3.2 Manual Miggy  :(

Anyone any suggestions?  :-?

Cheers  :y

Cheers bud - no doubt Andy B will show me the way - if he don't mind...

It really is wierd - on half-throttle, can feel the torque of the motor.  But on full throttle - well, there's sweet f.a. difference...  :-[

Hi again folks...

Not sure if this is related if my other posts, but...

My Miggy seems quite a bit down on grunt.

As I've said before - the 2nd from the left outlet on the breather box has broke off, but am going to fit a new un tomorrow.

Is this likely to fix things?  :-? Or is it going to be a multi-ram problem?

I can "tickle" the accellerator, and she picks up ok, but if I plant it - well, there is nowhere near as much grunt as there was from my last 3.2 Manual Miggy  :(

Anyone any suggestions?  :-?

Cheers  :y

               Put a[size=14][size=16] Piggy [/size][/size]in your [size=14][size=16]Miggy[/size][/size] ;D ;D ;D.
