    I spent the weekend finishing up the custom exhaust using my ST185's OEM muffler. It has a nice tone and is much quieter. Photos and video soon.

    Took it down to fill up the gas tank. Seems like I need to track down a slight misfire although my CEL was not blinking when I tried to time it. Today I am going to get it inspected and start troubleshooting the diagnostic plug so I can make sure it is timed correctly. Then Thursday I will with on the new gauges.

    Odd, I cannot get the CEL to blink at all, just stays steady when shorting TE1 & E1. Is there anything that will keep the CEL on when shorted? 02s, oil pressure?

    TIA!
