L-jetronic spider diagnosis page missing?

I'm still trying to figure out this whole Internet thing so forgive me if this is user error, but the following URL returns an error:

www.hiperformancestore.com/Ljetronic.htm

I had found the document from ghnl's signature, so I thank him for providing it to us.

After more than a year of ownership I'm finally ready to start work on my 86 quad. Just this past week I replaced the drivashaft support bearing, idler arm, center muffler and flushed the brake fluid. The car drives wonderful overall but has a slight exhaust pop between gear shifts, which I attribute to a slightly out of tune fuel system.
I had previously reviewed the tuning doc referenced above, but since at that time I was unable to work on the car I never printed it out.

That page is on Greg Gordan's web site. It may just be down for maintenance. If the link remains MIA we can rebuild it - maybe here?

Looks like the whole site is down for maintenance.

I doubt it'll be gone too awful long.

It's back.

I have it saved as a PDF so that could be uploaded somewhere for safe keeping.

Consider in your preventive maintenance plans to replace the Transmission support bushing, replace the Oxygen sensor with a Bosch general purpose one (you will have to reuse your old connector) and the flex joint (Giubo).
Also it is wise to get your fuel injectors ultrasonically and solvent cleaned and blueprinted.

I was at the convention and just now found out the site was down. It should be back up in the morning. For some reason it seems to go down on weekends. It's some sort of problem with the server (wccs.net). I may have to have someone else host it because this going down on weekends is becoming a problem.

I hope this doesn't qualify as copy right infringement, but I copied the whole thing to a Microsoft Word document and can get it anytime I need it.

That page is an edit of Greg's original page about L-jet in a GTV-6. Thus I consider it mainly his work - I just edited it to show the relevant parts on our Spiders more clearly.

I doubt there'd be any problems saving a copy for your personal use.

Greg - how would you feel if I copied that page here? We could then ask it become a 'sticky' so it'd always be on 'page one' of the Spider section.

Saving the page to your hard drive is fine with me. I think I actually suggest doing that somewhere on my site. I would rather the "sticky" be a link to my page. Otherwise, whenever I make an update it, I would have to do the work twice, or there would be two versions of the page floating around.

I plan to talk with the site's host today to ask why it keeps going down. That needs to stop.
