Paging AKATV please or other who know about display
shadetree replied to leolufse's topic in Electronics
anywayyyyyy, AKATV, here is another meter i got today, does it look good enough to use as is ?, i think so. i have a new cover from honda to put back on the top. as u can see, the old cover is bad, and cracked..lol. i do not know if it powers up ?, this came off a parts 450fm atv at my buds place. i got this, and the throttle/switch for free..soo, can't beat that with a stick !. -

update: well, after posting to AKATV about my meter, i made a trip to catfishes bone yard today while i was out at his house this morning, removed the meter from the parts bike 450fm, all 4 studs twisted out of the back side, no big deal, did get the meter off, removed the top cover, and luck has it ( not saying much for me lately ! ) the screen is in great shape !. i do have a brand new top cover from honda to put on it, not sure if it works or not ?, will find out way later. also got the throttle cable off with the 2wd-4wd switch. it still has the front and back end drive system, i may or may not need any of this yet ?, wont know until later..but at least its there if i need it !. ( yes...all this does not cost me a dime ), but i do work with him building atvs..so we barter back and forth like this a lot. i'll post some pics of the meter i got later on when i finish putting the engine back together, and post a pic of that as well.

300 headlights are all metal, 400,450 headlights are plastic. only sub-headlight that comes close to either of these 400 and 450 are the trx350 ranchers, which they too are plastic, but !!. where the bulb goes in, they twist in to attach the harness, where is on the 400 and 450 ( spec the later yr 450 ) the bulbs screw into the housing instead of twist in.

Case cleaning (anything work other than starter fluid)?
shadetree replied to jeepwm69's topic in Engine - Drivetrain
nothing beats PCS1000 from tractor supply, i've been doing this for almost 30 yrs now, i've tried it all, when it comes to nasty, dirty, muddy stuff ?, PCS1000 is the best stuff out there. only other thing that comes close to cutting grime off an engine ?, ie easy-off over cleaner. -
no, it will not fit, least not with some big time moding ?.
