After 13 years I'm going to make a request.

I went to high school with this guy, he's a good dude and he has fallen on a bit of bad luck recently. He bought a VW Westfalia van to live in (he's a bit of a hippy) and it overheated and burned to the ground along with nearly all of his worldly possessions along with it. Anyway, I was pretty good friends with him many years ago and even though we haven't really kept in touch, I do see what he's up to on FB and he seems like a genuinely good guy so if you want to help him out I'd appreciate it. I donated $100 earlier today.

If not, no big deal.

Please keep this thread positive though.

Thanks,

Jules

Bet it was the carb inlet. You gotta wire those things to the carb body, or they'll sometimes pop out, and spray gas on the exhaust with predictable results.

Sorry to hear of his problems.

I'm not in a position to donate right now but he looks like a fun guy and it sucks to lose your home (no matter what it was). I hope he lands on his feet soon.
