Re: Pandemic 1918 / 2020

What Scott said.
Nowadays, they're bolstering death rates locally and statewide. :evil: If you go in sick and die of cancer or old age, it's listed as covid not actual.

Yeehaw! MORE positives about the much maligned/mis-understood Vaporizer carbs!
I hope when I can get back to the TT with a vapo-rub carb, that he'll be be just as nice.

New Webinars. HCCT, specifically.

Just a call-out to the HCCT fellows that might host a Webinar or do a pre-recorded walk-thru on the HCCT for us fellas that want to see how it works for you.
HOT coils are HOT coils no matter how they're done. Vroom!
They sure make a difference! True.

This engine hadn't been started in 50+ years. :) I got the 18 (a 23 engine) a few years ago and was checking valve timing as things were not right, getting ready to start it.
