Electronics suck. Brand new Amana fridge lasted one year, crapped out. 150.00 fix. Bosh dishwasher recall, electrical. Sharp 52 inch l.c.d. t.v. lasted 14 months, replaced under extended warranty, [thank goodness]. How many of you still have an old beer fridge in your basement from the sixties still running like a top?

Carb's an points are fine on farm equipment that has been around for years. You know where your at on your own property even in the rain!

I'd love to get out of this area here in VA. All the wall to wall traffic and drivers that don't ever see you. Until your knocking on there drivers window to get them to move over from running you up against the jersey wall separating the on coming traffic!

Thanks for posting the pictures from down home on the farm.

Got to post pictures of your new mag!

I've rebuilt a number of Wico and Fairbanks, you may want to keep a spare set or points, a fresh capacitor and some points shaft grease hidden away for a rainy day!

Good choice on getting parts to have on hand.

Have heard good stuff on both carbs. Someone will chime in soon with more info.
