Thanks for commenting my friend!Not sure I knew that you spent time in the great State of Texas! Central Texas is the heart of REK country.  He released his first album when I was at UT - played around Austin quite a bit.  He was a hard partying dude and threw a hell of a party at every show.  My roommate was a huge REK fan so introduced me - great stuff and his songwriting has just continued to improve.

Carmen - if you have successfully tuned a Weasel engine installed - you deserve a medal!  Every time I remove a Weasel engine, I find all kinds of engine parts - rotors, screws from the distributor and on and on....I tried to change the starter with the engine installed in the vehicle.....yes it is possible, but a horrible idea! 😂  A Weasel is like owning a Porsche - pull the engine to do anything....!

Focus! Boom!  New coil! Boom!  You are a good man - thank you!

Thank you Pierre - great tip.  I will try it - all this scrapping and stuff is a lot like hard work!

Thank you Howard....no vacuum advance on the Weasel, just the mechanical.  Cheers!

You are a good man - makes good sense...except my OCD... 😂

Don - I have a few NOS babbit connecting rods.  There are no potholes on the surface - they are perfectly smooth.  That being said, I would definitely plastigauge a couple of them and see how much wear you have.  If they are still within tolerance, you probably will be fine with them...even with imperfections.

Misery loves company Scott!😂. Rest assured that I am going to spend some time this weekend, trying to identify the high and low speed winding so I can fix that beast and get it running again.  I am going to have to put myself on the clock.....

We may need to fly you up for a guest spot Dana! 

Jay Turnbull Alright, Doc....sounds like the prescription is "as much as I can handle"....I can handle that!  🤩
