Nice shot. How'd it run?

j_martin

and you think you had a headache.....

Isn't the throttle lever setting actually the governor speed setting? You should be able to install a weaker governor spring to limit top engine speed, then modify it with your throttle stop.

If that isn't sensitive enough, you'll have to rig a belt drive governor.

G'day. Tuesday morning where I am, Monday evening where most of youse is at.

Just a quick fly by to say that I have been thinking about all the sacrifices that have been made by American men and women to ensure that me as a non American have the freedom I have today. I do not take what I have for granted and am very grateful that in the past the bad guys and countries have been pushed back and made America the great country it became. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I salute all of you, especially those in the forces.

Sad to see how your leaders are now destroying what was so valiantly built up.

Tim, agree 100% with you. Evening all. I'm hoping this Memorial Day finds you all in good health and enjoying the freedoms so many other have sacrificed for. Had to replace the water heater yesterday, not happy.

Thanks. Not going too fast, just out there messing around. 8.4s and 8.5s on the eighth. I turned it up a little and my EGTs were going faster than I was, so I left it alone.

Stan, good post.

Mornin. Coffee, scrambled eggs with a little cheese and bacon, along with a nice and rare tuna steak for breakfast. Juice too.

Off to work, I love me a good 3 day weekend

The Hat already has the c0ffee situation under control, and it's nice an' strong!

Scotty

Good day to all.
Hope yer wk is a good one.
Changes are in order here in my world. I hope and Pray the choices and moves I'm going to make turn out positive. Kind of vague I know. However, it's how it is right now.

I concocted a 'special' phoo.

Lil Dog

Good luck man. I truly hope it works in your favour.

FiverBob

I am with you on the changes. NO quick moves.

As for this ph00 mess - - - I am just going to have to come up there, take you down and sit on you and poor your mess down your throat. Then, get up and run like mad..........................................Then we will go fishing together and catch up on "stuff."

Pool is no longer grey concrete - - new pebble tec coating is on. Acid wash it in the morning and put everything back together and start putting water in. Thought it would never happen. Slowly getting things put back together. Can't wait to cook my first meal out there. Have a party. Steaks an all the trimmings - - that will be fun. Paver seal goes on Friday.

chaikwa

That's 'pour' Bob.
That WILL be fun! When do you want us there? This weekend too soon?

FiverBob

NOPE, wrong - - it is "POOR" for big boy. Pour is too gentle.

Hey, this weekend is perfect. Nothing will be done - - - yet. Furniture will not be delivered - - - - yet. Planting not done - - - - yet. NO equipment installed - - - - yet. Yeh, this weekend is perfect. (I wish)

Nuther train wreck - - what is going on in our country. Fires in California - - - again - - course that is quite normal for them. More tornadoes and rough weather today. Horrors.

Totallyrad

Afternoon all.
