Just pay attention to what parts go where and you will be good. About the only thing that "might" need to be replaced would be a float valve and seat. Almost no chance you would ever need to replace the carb. And they are not cheap.

Oh noes. Usually its not a good thing when folks are talkin 'bout me.

I enjoyed the GTG I went to on Saturday....Jersey is pretty far away though. I'd have to fly in.

I'm ok, trying to keep things together, if only as a temporary solution. Its kind of a long story! How are you?

I saw pictures from your GTG. Can't say I've ever changed my oil in 4" heels. Looked uncomfortable.

17th of this month isn't quite doable for me. Proverbial d-day for me is the 30th of this month I have to be moved out of my house. I have no idea where I'll be in a month. Hey, it keeps things fresh!
