Finished and tested all of the stuff needed to get the engine to go. The starter turns it over and I've got oil pressure. The ignition sparks and it's stactic timed to 12 degrees BTDC. The fuel pump pumps fuel. I'm all set. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
But I'm not gonna start it until we can celebrate. Next Saturday around 4 PM at my place. Anybody who's planning to come let me know so we have enough food (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) and beer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) Wives and GF's always welcome.

You're really into tempting fate, eh Dave?
It might be fun just to come and watch you sweat (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

I don't think I can make it, Dave... it's my Mom's 77th birthday on Saturday, and I have to be in Everett at 4:30 for our family celebration. Dinner, cake, wine, and lots of laughs.
But I'll be missing out. For me, your engine fire-up party would be a fun and memorable hoot of a time, and also an opportunity for a refresher course on carburetors!! Mmm, open exhaust. Don't forget your earplugs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Roger
Kevin is coming about 1 to put his carbs on the new engine. You're sure welcome to come and help. I'm pretty sure most everyone else is coming around 4. I don't have any Leffe but I can dig up some kind of decent brew. Dave |
