  • Spiral Handle Controls

    Went out today to give my new 45WL a good look over to get an idea of what it's going to take to get it going down the road. Previous owner said it ran fine when he put it away 12yrs ago.

    The first thing I need to address is to get the Timer and Throotle controls working smoothly. I really have to fight with them but they do move. I tried forcing WD thru the end of grips and it did help some but I'm thinking I need to take them apart for a good cleaning. I haven't ordered a book for this thing yet and was wondering how much hassle these things are to take apart? The flat-screw driver bolt visable at end of the grips is in very poor condition and doesn't want to come loose. The bolts look like I'm not the first one to try to move them. The slots are almost gone from rust and someone using the wrong size screw-driver.

    How smooth are these controls made to be? Maybe I can just keep shooting the WD in there and see if it works it way down in there. Any suggestions? -Steve
