Is anyone planning on checking timing? I'd like to check mine but do not have the tools (light) or know-how to do so?

I've got a light for timing and feeler gauges for valves but it would probably be better if someone else did the adjusting for you than me!

It will be BYOB

I was thinking on grabbing a lot of Hot dogs and grill em for lunch, quick and easy. Unless you all have a different plan.

Also my house sets up on a little hill, the drive is kind of hidden by bushes. I have put a White post at the end of the drive with 303 on it. The drive kind of splits into a U thing and heads back out to the street, Pull around back when you get here.

If for some reason you get here and no one is in the back come in the garage and ring the door bell. I do not have one on the outside yet.

Or just follow the voices we may be around the corner, unless the voices are in your head you might not want to listen to those.

I'm coming in the morning. I need to change out my plug wires on my 80 series. Figured I could lend a hand with others for a couple hrs also. Not going to be able to stay past lunch My 20th high school reunion is that night as well the Dr thinks we might be having a baby next week so I have lots to do.

See y'all in the morning.

Not for beer. Hmmm maybe that's why I get all confused.

No difference in power, but super smooth idle! I think the O2 sensors may be part of the problem right now!

I'll get a pic posted ASAP on the "Turbo"

Lol.

I'd be willing to buy that from you and mount it on my cruiser somewhere so the cuban can see it.

That is priceless.
