If any one has a problem with rust in their Helix tank.I have a solution to the problem that does'nt require removing the tank,contact me and I'll tellyou how  oceangypsy82@bellsouth.net

Its not that loud sort of poping noise,another Helixer I know has 3 Helixs and he says they all backfire some what...

As for the helix I dont know but I had aNisson Sentra that had the same problem and did the jumper thing and it worked fine for a couple of years then I sold the car and it still worked,,

Very good idea.  I too have a trip button missing on my 86 Helix.

Well, I drained the old coolant and added new,  and put in a new thermal sensor. Now runs at 2 bars unless I hit I-75 at full throttle for awhile (70mph), then it goes up to 3 bars.....

Hello I'm a CN fan from Italy,
I'd like to remake my CN with the Helix light blue color. Where could I find the color codes table??
Thanks in advance, Marco

I'm looking for a backrest for a 04 helix any ideas would be welcomed...

 How severe is the backfiring? If it's loud, I'd recommend replacing your exhaust gasket. If it's a very mild burble, I'd make sure that the carb was pushed all the way into the intake manifold, and that the band clamp that secures the carb into the manifold was tight. Speaking of the manifold, you might want to remove it and inspect it for cracks while you're at it. Usually a backfire or popping on deceleration indicates a lean condition (too much air in the air/fuel mixture) Good luck, and let us know how you make out.

When I ease off the throttle my scoot back fires thru the muffler should I be concerned???

STO 2010 is rapidly approaching. Planning for the many activities is done. We’re just waiting for the day we finally travel to Eureka Springs and start putting all the plans into action. You can look forward to 4 full days of riding, eating, visiting, and more! AGENDA

Ride maps have been posted. MAPS STO’s ride coordinator, Tim, recommends you print out the .PDF maps in color. He will bring b/w copies, but says the color maps are more detailed and easier to read.

We will not be selling shirts at the rally, but if you act soon you still have time to order and receive them before the rally. SHIRTS

Remember that Travelers Inn changed its name, and its sign out front, to Americas Best Value Inn. It is easy to find, right next to Pizza Hut.

With over 100 pre-registered, this should be the best Scooting the Ozarks Rally ever. Looking forward to seeing everyone SOON!
