Scott, I presume you are upgrading a hatchback, not a jellybean. Is the DC/DC living in the controller compartment? For batteries, best to stick to D34 Yellow...
I own 4 Sparrows and often drive 3 of them in excess of 70 Mph. They have always been very stable and a pleasure to drive at highway speeds. The fourth is...
What's happening with the Sparrows built by Myers Motors? Are they still operating or back at the factory for repairs or recall? Any information about plans...
This past weekend I left the bird parked on the street for an evening. When I went to drive it I had no power to anything. I depressed the BRB in an attempt...
... Wild guess - DC-DC converter overheating? That could cause it to go into shutdown/crowbar, then require a removal of source power (BRB pushdown) and...
I didn't tale any pictures, though I wanted too. When I set a chance I'll get some posted. The one diagram I made was for my wiring harness. I'll get a picture...
Wondering if anyone has any opinions on the Myers replacement front spindles. They have floating caliper brake assemblies, and may have better bearings - hard...
I had the same problem. I was told "the brain" under the dash might have a loose connection. Before I had a chance to look into it some fine, upstanding...
I know this group is non-advertisement. But I thought maybe some of you would be interested in a new Sparrow site I made, with all correct info. I am not done,...
Earlier this week, I was trundling along when all of a sudden I lost power. All auxiliary systems continued to work. I coasted to a place I was lucky enough to...
I think that you sort of whitewashed Corbin and made the Business Partner the bad guy. Corbin took full payment for cars they never delivered. They did...
Colleagues, I bought an ATV jack and need to lift my sparrow to do some work on it. Any advice as to where to lift or not lift. Should I use a piece of...
... I think the ATV jack spreads the load enough to not need any plywood. About the only place you CAN lift the Sparrow is under the middle body pan area. -- ...
Elmer: I agree with Noel. I don't think your telling of the Corbin Motors history of 2000 and beyond matches my recollection of Corbin Motors behaviour during...
Finally, I am planning for a trip East in the coming weeks. Those interested for me to stop by, please contact me off-list at EdAng (at) airlabcorp dot com. ...
I know this may be controversial, but while the Sparrow is registered as a motorcycle, that does not necessarily mean that from a licensing perspective you...
... WA made some changes so that the Sparrow counts as a motorcycle. You may want to check the latest rulebook. Also, you REALLY don't want it classified as a...
If the reverse light works, then it's not the dash. I think there is only one wire to the back of my Sparrow that carries the "reverse" indicator. I believe it...
Why not tell the people? Corbin is the one that produced the vehicle that you are driving. I think they deserve a lot of credit for what they have done, even...
I didn't take sides. ... From: "anbausa" <evfinder@...> To: <sparrow_ev@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 8:05 AM Subject: [sparrow_ev] Re:...
Dale, No plywood is needed. Just need to find the balance point, about 12" back from the rear of the front fenders. Be certain to push the jack in as far as...
The correct number of Sparrows actually produced is much less than the 350 you state. Corbin made 282 or 3, plus the few Myers turned out, so the total is less...
I should have said the forward/reverse indicator lights operate when the switch is turned either right or left, per normal, but apparently no signal is being...
Actually, I thought Elmers depiction of the sparrow in those early days was a fairly accurate one. I never thought I'd see the day where I'd actually be...
The total is about 350 if approximately 70 empty body shells are included in the count. A number of these empty shells were for cars that customers paid for...
Course it does. But I digress. The owner of the website claims it contains "all accurate information" and it is a very nice looking site with a dot com...
