TOAK, The Thread of All Knowledge Part XIII
in my own defense. I inhaled,swallowed or chugged a lot of what was then illegal drugs as a well adjusted teenager should.
Supp Al, Russ first sign of the 4th of July holiday (fireworks) are going off to far off to drive the dog nuts but she is hearing them all the same.
Daughter got me that t-shirt.
Evening gents! I survived holiday weekend rush hour traffic. Again, I rate it as a "Meh" I've seen so much worse.

I’m waiting with baited breath on my 2. Pm start on Sunday 396 easy miles in a semi on Memorial Day weekend.

This day sure went by fast. Got the tiller running and used it a bit in the garden. Had a running problem I hoped to fix without pulling the carb, but when the grandson stuffed dirt in the carb, didn't have a choice. It was so cruddy inside I'm surprised it ran as well as it did, taking it apart turned out to be a good thing. When I got it back together, it started on the first pull. Getting the linkages back together was a puzzle, sure glad I took several photos before taking it apart. Around 30 years old, first time the carb's been off.
Before -
Main jet was so cruddy I'm surprised it ran. Never saw a carb setup like this before, carb sits on the gas tank, pumps gas into a bowl that just spills over to keep a correct level and the carb picks it up from there. The bowl was yucky but cleaned up easily. Main tank was clean.
Ultrasonic cleaners sure do a good job, and easy to use.

Thank you for making my mind up about future toiling Mike. I think I may just be a condo owner soon.
