Important
If any Listees have the following symptoms :
Mpg less then 25
Smell of exhaust
Stalls@stoplight
Fuel to rich
your problem may be the green wire that goes from the 02 senser near the
Catylactic converter to the computer to the left of your motor ,
it is a co-axiel wire that gets mistaken for a single wire when it's crimped
near the computer.
These were the symptoms and the fix for my 84 Westy
