none of those, but there were plenty of decorated lawn mowers towing rolling tables full of green jello shots.

Jim, I am not sure what to tell this guy. My truck was having all kinds of problems with rough idle, loosing power, and stalling, but that was because the carb was missing 5 pieces inside of it! Wondering is maybe his carb would need a rebuild? After I rebuilt mine and put it back onto the intake, it leaked gas out of the gaskets, I had to tighten the retaining screws more to get it to stop leaking.

I feel like the little dutch kid trying to stick his finger in the dike to stop the leak. Dikes that hold sea water back, sickos...

Fixed 2 spots where ATF was squirting then 2 more made themselves known.
