Post by: Goetz on November 02, 2012, 08:47:33 PM
dont remember it happening but took her for a ride to check the tune on the carbs (god awful rich for good reason) and noticed the shifter felt wonky. Bolt had broken off in the hole. drilled it, stuck my new favorite shop tool, a drywall screw in there and worked it out. Now, If I can get a bearing, like, aneedle bearing with these dimmensions - Id 7.76 od 12 l 18  in mm- i might be able to fab something up. otherwise its find a welder.
