Strange and intermittent electrical problem

[Spiffle]

It might not be shorting when turning. It might be "breaking" when turning too

It hasn't happened again since I wiggled and reconnected the cables I could find, cleaning out dust etc. But the 8k+ trouble has become worse at times, especially if I go full throttle through the gears it just plutters and foccs around above 8-9k.
New filters are on it's way (air and fuel), new regulator (ebay ftw) and a carb repair kit ought to do the trick.


A milestone - I've now spent over half the initial price on upgrades and replacement parts  :lol
