I forgot to tell everyone that when I went to Hawaii this past summer I got my first tatoo. You can only guess what it is. I posted a picture on my website,...
John, I would use the old line as a pattern and bend up a new one. You can buy brake line kit at a Napa store or Pep Boys. Then use a spring bender or regular...
... Only 1 problem, ALL Sparrow brake lines are flex lines. The only rigid piece is about 6" long in the back. Finding a place that makes flex brake lines is...
Thanks! Well, I have to replace all the brake lines. So far, I've been able to unscrew all of them from whatever they attached to - except for the short piece...
... Hmm, thinking about that. The front Right line is still ok. Front left got melted where it crossed the one to the back. The line to the back comes in 2...
You don't happen to know which power window mechanism Corbin used do you? I'll need to replace the left side unit, and haven't gotten a response back from...
John: I'm a Master Mechanic who's been lurking. To easily remove stuck hydraulic fittings of any kind, just cut the line off near the fitting and use a six...
... Nice advice, though I didn't need it. I got all the lines off by cutting them in half, then I could unscrew them. Just the pivot had gotten stuck, not...

... Ummm, that's both poor engineering and completely unnecessary: the pressure to the rear wheel will be whichever valve is set the lowest. They do not work...
Good Morning to ALL! I would like to introduce myself. I am a fledgling future Sparrow owner. I got my first in-person look at one this past weekend, but I...
Just got insurance (minimum liability only, no comprehensive/collision) from Aegis Security Insurance Company - the rep I dealt with was R.K. Hughes, in Nutley...
My 2000 pizza butt bird has three tabs on the throttle POT microswitch (Curtis PB-6). The two wires are off (don't ask) and I need to know which two tabs they...
Just got an IM from Sarah in Rockville, MD - she saw a green (darker than Falcon's lime green, apparently) sparrow with a Maryland tag (maybe "ELCTRIC"?) on...
I am new to the Sparrow group and just wanted to say hello. Also want to thank Davide and others for all the wonderful service info. My friend Kevin B. owns a...
While the Wiki is still down, can somebody tell me how to get at the charging plug? I'm trying to re-wire the plug so that it doesn't trip GFI outlets, as...
No, you can get to the wiring by just removing the gas connector from the outside. There are some small hex screws you have to remove. I don't remember if I...
Hello I am new in the EV World. I have a few Questions about the Corbin Sparrow? I was reading in the post that a few people have State farm insurance, is it...
I would like to invite this new Sparrownaught to attend the next meeting of the Electric Vehicle Assoc of DC. (We actually meet in Rockville) Details can be...

... Yeah, but the Yahoo Search is quite limited, and only shows a few results at a time. It gets REALLY frustrating trying to find things. -- John G. Lussmyer...
John, Sorry, I didn't know about the flex lines. I never inspected mine, but you can go online and check out Dennis Kirk motorcycle catalog. Harley's and...
No, but I took a good look at mine recently when I changed the belt. Turns out that on mine, the dragging is not caused by an incorrect adjustment of the cable...
Does anyone know what is happening at Myers Motors? They were offering vehicles and abruptly stopped. If anyone has any news, please let us know. Thanks...
After using my Sparrow for a total of about a month (3 weeks before it broke in October and a week and a half now that Myers got it back to me) I'm convinced...
