    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

You want to see dirty carbs?

That picture looks like it is fairly clean compared with the carbs that I am trying to rebuild for my bike. It has been a 6-week "ordeal" to get them clean and I am about half-way there. It took almost two weeks of cleaning just to get the sliders to move freely. Today's plan is to finally get the butteryfly's to move as they are siezed in place. After that, I'll see if I can get the needles and floats off ...
 
OK Robert, you win :)

They look like they spent a couple of years at the bottom of the ocean down with the cannons and cutlasses. spyug
Oops, just missed your chance to sell genuine relics from the Titanic?bummer. :(
 
Rather than try to screw with these, I just rebuilt another set. ;)

Some day... I will soak these for a month or so and possibly save them.
