For those who have been following my travails to get this beast running correctly (had a bad rotor), well, it's still running like crap. In fact it stalled out twice today and I wasn't sure Id make it back home from around the block. So, I just decided to dive in and have removed one of the 40s just now. I'm taking photos, counting turns and taking my good old time. I'll let ya'll know what happens.
