Wondering if any of you have ever experienced a flicker problem on the low beam only?
Thanks in advance.
 

Have your sled running then open the hood and try to "rattle" the connection on the bulb, see if the light flickers. If so then see if the the connectors are corroded, clean them.
 
does the tach jump around also when the light flickers? any misses coming from the engine?
 
Sorry for the delay guys, I have no loose connections and I lost all low beams last night. Also when I turn on the low beams the light goes off and so does the tach. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you pulled the harness from under the motor. Harness starts to get worn through and you need to tape the individual wires and then retape the bundle of wires.

do a search for wire harness rub through..........

Sounds like you need to check the wiring harness under the engine. They are known to get rubbed thru. Undo the plugs in the front at the hood and tie a string to the harness, then undo the clamps that hold the harness and pull it out back by the carbs. You will most likely find that the harness is rubbed thru and shorting out. Fix the wires and put some plastic wireloom on the harness and reinstall.
 
It is 100 percent that the wiring is rubbed thru on the harness. The tell tale sign is the tach going off when you change the headlight dimmer switch.
 
SWEEEEET Thanks everybody, sure enough I pulled the harness only about 10" or so and found 2 wires worn through. Thank for everybody's help.
