About this time, I found Ih8mud. Wow, what a wonderful resource. I’ve looked at other forums around the internet, and I really don’t think you can beat Mud for the amount of help freely given. The atmosphere here is excellent.

Since I had found mud, I sent my carb off to 65swb45 (Mark A) for a rebuild and port for vacuum advance. I also bought a vacuum advance dizzy from Bandy Rooster. This was all done inside a dark, sand covered basement of an old fruit packing house. It was not a good place to work on a rig, but since the carb was off, I didn’t really have a choice. Once I got the carb back from Mark, I hooked it up and pushed the rig out. By this time, it was March, and only the 3rd time I had made it up to work on the rig. I also got the top and doors back on. Notice the rack on front for the sprinkler pipe. I also changed all fluids, cap, rotor, wires and whatnot since the rig had been sitting for about 4 years.
