Re: Stretched SU springs 1800 67

posted by  someone claiming to be MittenHed on  Sat Nov 11 13:53 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Why? Never underestimate the tendency of your fellow man to misunderstand, modify, and alter anything. The more mysterious, the more common the modification. On a scale of 1-10, SUs rate a strong 9.5 for mystery. I once bought a 544 that had had the linkage modified so that they worked as primary and secondary.

Perhaps the PO had a problem with stumble on accelleration. Rather than use heavier oil, or use oil to begin with, he stretched the springs?

Have faith in the creativity of our fellows.
