also have them swap-out the spring clamps for fuel injection hose clamps
(about $2.00 for 4 clamps. at autozone in the fuel filter area.these clamps are a prefect circle
with a screw & nut to hold it together. the spring clamps get weak over time
(Even new ones) as in my case & start leaking. dealer mech suggested adal clamps
but they too loosen over time. one guy had his hose blow-off & ruin his engine.
on one of these sites. just can't stop thinking here. also order a set of allen wrench head
screw set for the primary. & as the mech gets into there to insp the compensator,
he will replace the torex head screws with your set.

I just enjoy working on my on bikes and cars. Only take them to the dealer when it's something on this new fangled stuff that I can't research and find a cure for. I used to do mechanic work for a living but this new stuff still gets me sometime but it can usually be researched and the use of the service manual can be solved.
