    I created a software that displays a 3D diagram from wiring to engine to carburetors on different jobs e.g. Tuning Carburetors, Engine Cleaning, Diagnosing Electrical Issues. I'm going to make it open source, but I was wondering if the old heads in this forum would use it?

    Note: The parts aren't exactly 1 to 1 in terms of design, will update that issue in the near future. Also, Specs are for the 1980–81 US Maxim unless marked, and each one cites its source on the Specs tab. Every system of the bike, modeled in 3D and labeled: tap a part, run the engine through its firing order, trace any circuit wire by wire, take a carb apart down to the O-rings, then follow the job.

    Also please provide any suggestions and I wanted to share another cool image of the exploded view of the wiring.

    Yes, I can see a great use for such software. And I think it will be wildly entertaining just to watch even if I am not trying to diagnose some issue. It should really help folks new to XJ's understand some of the nuances as well.
