    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I know that this post will get all sorts of negative replies from the conservatives here but has anyopne se up a candle stick exhaust on their bike? on anything? I would love to set one up. A chrome fire exstinguisher and a 2ft. flame would look really cool.
 
I have never personally had one but I have heard that they are really easy to do.all you need is a coil a plug and a supply of fuel (kerosene as I recall)and then the necessary mods to the rear of the muffler to mount it. Mind you I have also heard they severely frowned upon by the authorities.

HeHeHe They are a really crazy thing to do but a LOT of fun ! We made them by drilling a hole for a carb jet to be inserted in the pipe about 8 inches from the outlet.I soldered a 6" piece of steel brake line into the jet.The other end was hooked up to a windshield washer pump and jug filled with the fluid.We mixed Kerosene and USED motor oil until we got a proper mix for smoke/fire show.A small spark plug such as a Champion CJ14 plug was threaded into the pipe about 4-5" down stream from the jet.We used a transformer from an old oil fired furnace to light the fire with a small ac converter to get 120 volts for the transformer power.we could BBQ any thing with-in 6 ft at the right engine speed !! BE VERY CAREFUL !!!!!! :twisted: :twisted:
BTW I Didn't post this if any body wants to know! :twisted:
 
None for me, thanks. I once had a tach hooked up temporarily on my Buick, with and alligator clip on the coil tower. Going down the road (the air was reeeeaaaalllly wet) I must have gotten an arc at just the wrong time because there was a deafening clap of thunder and a HUGE orange fireball behind the car. I thought something blew up, I looked behind me for engine parts laying in the road, and gave the engine a twist to see if it was 'still with me', and everything was fine. When the heart rate slowed down a little I figured out what happened and disconnected the rascal. That's enough excitement for one lifetime.
