Penetrating Oil (WD40 will do) - Drip/spray lots every hour or so for a day - leave overnight - re-spray and leave for 10 minutes, tap with wooden/plastic mallett and it should start to free. Alterntative (if you don't need the old exhaust pipe and sleeves / clamps): Cut off the pipe about 2 inches from the cylinder - cut longways internally (need a decent free-blade metal saw) and, once through, crush with a vice / mole grips and extract. Warning: If you do this, remove cyliner head and barrell and througally clean out any swarf. Rebuild, flush oil through before filling crankcase. Paitence is needed! Good luck.

Organising a group out of Cambs. (Huntingdon in Particular) with a view to meeting up with 'you lot' at (maybe) Newark - Assuming you will be going up the A46. Will need to coordinate timings (as we need to be at Market Raisen) by 11:00am. -

Auto advance? Poor compression in one cylinder? Blocked Air Filter? Are you sure both carb throttle needles are set the same? Idle jets set the same? Throttle linkage to both carbs set correctly? Choke linkage to both carbs set correctly? Excessive carbon deposits in one cylinder? Good Luck

Booked to go and see Austrailian Pink Floyd in Nottingham that evening so I will not be attending at Skeggy Hope you have a great time -
Assuming you have a spare then you can get a new one cut at a key-cutting shop - They may have to order a blank. Suzuki will provide a spare provided you give them the lock/key number, the vehicle reg, your details, etc. Usually only through a Suzuki outlet though.

Peugeot Jetforce 125 EFI - Missing, and losing power
Grumpy Old Git replied to DeeJ's topic in Pitstop
Another Jetforce 'problem'. Could be that this model is totally CR@P!!! Once you get it sorted - Best to sell it and get a better model. -
Throw it off a cliff (see Quadrophenia)!
