    just replaced my battery with the re-involt (upgraded version) from NC.

    so far so good, gas mileage better than new.

    had some issues getting the shipment across the border and the core back, nuisance really, and of course fee's


    next question


    are there any easy fixes for the exhaust valve sticking, or am i into the 3g's for the stainless OEM.

    regards from TO

    I understand you can lube it with high temperature grease but I have not done this myself. It's a common and easily fixed problem. Apparently it's pretty easy to get to.

    Did you search for a how-to yet?
