Default Mud Wasps

Hi

Really good point about checking lines for foreign stuff, ie wasps nest. I found them in other crud in brand new brake and fuel line lengths from the auto part.

Really messes up a brake job.

Taken to blown Q-tips through any new or old lines, works great as long as the lines are straight. Anything bent or too small for the Q-tip I use mechanics wire.

Yes, I do like people who actually drive their MVs, one of the guys in our local club just finished restoring a M38 which had been his trail ride Jeep for years, we have been kidding him that we would be glad to put the first scratch in it so he could go back to enjoying it in the woods. If he doesn't find a trail jeep by next spring, would be willing to bet he will be back in the woods.

But you can drive MVs in the woods/trail with little more than branch scratches. I all ways like to follow some thing a little bigger than my truck which helps avoid scratches.

Cheers Phil
