    I don't want to work overtime!

    Warelephant, You may as well get use to working, it's never going to end. My son works a lot of hours and I encurage that. He complained to me that his company assigned him a car that looks like an old person would drive. Had to remind him that if he worked six to seven days and nights a week...

    Work overseas

    Sounds way too low. I was over close to that area in 79 & 80. My pay was $125K USD annual. Truck, 30 day vacation + 4day travel, paid annual flight home + back and a large villa. Had my state side house hold storage paid too. Hold out for more.

    Infrared cameras in automotive racing.

    I have used my infrared camera on my trucks. Along with alignment, it does a very good job of showing high or low tire pressures when looking at the treds.

    Overheating

    ICman, I have been looking forward to knowing if you have found the problem. A tight wheel bearing could be an area to look at. I know the gentleman who designed the KB pistons. If you would like, I can see if I can get him on line here. LadaTrouble, I have given you a star. I had not thought...

In my motorcycle shop we have found that when that nut loosens, it can let the spacer behind the pully slip on the main shaft causing the ends of the spacer to...

    Overheating

    A hot afternoon across Kansas. I would check the cam bushings. The cams will grow in length and will use the steel support plates on the needle bearing side of the cams as a backer and push the cams tight to the cover bushings blocking the oiling channel on the bushing. I have seen that happen...

    Overheating

    I have been trying to find out if the timing rotor is the same for the 883 and 1200 and if the VOES switch is the same setting for the 1200 modification. Does the bike have the stock ignition module in it? Is it the 4 speed chain, or the 5 speed belt drive? Has the cover for the cams been off...

    Overheating

    The Sportster altenator runs in the primary/ transmission oil seperate from the engine oil. Have you checked the drive train, wheel bearings, transmission for draging.
