Sussed the issue with the temp gauge. The 7v regulator for the gauge has left the building. As the regulator is NLA from Honda, I'll be making my own with a LM317T adjustable VR, a couple caps, a resistor, and a pot. Made up a few of these when I converted a few old cars from 6v to 12v.

Adjusted the valves today, too. I want to find the clown that adjusted the valves previously and have his Man Card revoked. No reason for a lash of 3/16" especially when it calls for .08mm IN and .10mm EX.

Just need to check on the cam chain adjustment and waiting on some small stuff from Radio Shack then back together she goes.
