Chuffed to bloody bits!

The GPZ I bought last year has been suffering badly, misfiring, rattling, basically sounding like a bag of shite and ready to explode.

I had posted to a Zed forum elsewhere however to no avail, didnt manage to get it fixed.

Joined another Zed site the start of the week (had to PAY to use it FFS!! ) and after a bit of searching and asking, lo and behold the answer came forth.

Approximately 2 minutes of spanner wielding later and the Zed is running like a new bike. Sounds absolutely lovely, no rattles misfires or anything. JOB JOBBED!!

To say im chuffed is a bit of an understatement!

Anyways, Bar is open, Im celebrating the Joys of Zed ownership again!!. What's yer poison?

So what was the answer?

I'll have a Malt please

A case of resetting the camchain tensioner! So bloody simple it hurts, however having ne'er worked on the Zed before and a lack of proper manual for it, it weren't that simple.

Tis fixed now, although I may invest in a new camchain before it goes much further, just to be on the safe side.

It warrants repeating....

Job Jobbed!

Well done Kwackie I'll have a pint of Rioja with ya m8
