[AJD] Robert's Car Repair

[Robert M. Massengale]

Frank -

I wouldn't hesitate to put in one of the basic carb kits, but listening to the folks on 
the List talk about pulling brass plugs, drilling out passage ways, finding "hidden" 
passages, etc.... I'm not real confident about that.  I'd sure like to at least hear the 
ole gal run before I trash her carb.  It's soaking in a bucket of diesel right now...
