How-to videos? Anyone know of any?

Post by Grizzle33 »

Has anyone made any how-to videos? I would love to find a section of videos that users have made that show how to properly adjust a carburetor with a vacuum gauge or set the points in a dizzy. I've searched around and I cannot find anything of quality, and I would seriously question the knowledge of the people putting the videos out.


I ordered a new Carburetor and I would love to learn how to use a vacuum gauge properly.

I guess I should have posted this in the "Video" section, but everything there looks misc.
