today everyone wants to flame. Gesh.

Lets talk little cars. Miss Agatha is kinda put out at me. I have yet to set her carbs. So humid and hot here.

Well if I were really truthful I would say I hate that job, it either goes real good or takes days.

I am now to the point of warming engine and adjusting mixture, hate that I always seem to have a prob with that.

There is a sweet spot you know, that extra half a flat one way or another and you can feel and hear it. That's what I am looking for.

Maybe with the bad weather comming up I will run out of excuses to get to it.
 
I know what you mean Jack. Must be the dog days of August. Bees are a little more agitated this time of year. Perhaps we humans get that way too.

Chin up on the mixing job. What are you using to set your air flow? I'm still using the un-scientific method of holding a hose to my ear to listen to air flow and try to match them. I probably should get a proper air meter.

By the way...how's your knee?
 
Have a Uni-Sync works fine. Been useing one for 40 years. Think they are about 30 bucks. Check with Tony, Moss has em.
 
Nothing wrong with the old hose-in-the-ear method! Even though I have an old Uni-Sync, I still resort to the hose at times!
