swap steps

Post by Legato626 »

I have been searching and looking for steps on doing a swap. What are the best steps on removing the K8?

step 3 - accidently install the keg into the mx-3 because you're drunk as a skunk and wonder why the performance is a little "groggy"

I didn't even know my write up was a FAQ.
I'm honored :oops:

Now I guess I should really go back through it and get some photos and such to go along to truley make it a guide for dummies.

If you have any questions PM me.
