An elderly man in Texas had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the back. It was perfect for swimming, so he fixed it up nice with picnic tables, horseshoe pits and some pear & peach trees... One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond, as he hadn't been there for a while to look it over. He grabbed a five gallon bucket to bring back some fruit. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closer, he saw there was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. Being a gentleman, he made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end. One of the women shouted to him "we're not coming out until you leave!!!!". The old man frowned & told them "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or make you get out of the pond naked". Holding the bucket up he said, "I'm just here to feed the alligator".

Hey, what's everyone's weekend plans? A buddy and I are going camping at Reiter Pit and doing some quading. The later part of the weekend we will be modifying his trailer to carry his quad better. It's been awhile since I've been in the shop, it'll be fun.

I get to go back to fix the driveshaft in my F250 for the third time. Every time someone pulls out in front of me and I downshift hard into 2nd, I blow the rear universal. The first time, it was just the joint. The second time it was the joint and the driveshaft yoke. This time it's both yokes. Almost didn't get the driveshaft out of the middle of the road.

It would be best to go to the tech forums for you question, but I will research...First you must explain what Head and Intake!
