Well my Deuce seemed sluggish. I changed fuel filters and there was a small improvement so I researched turning up the fuel. I read about how by passing the FDC would make a difference so I tried it. Easy enough to change back if it did not work. Wow it helped significantly. I now have some black smoke during acceleration and it has some get up and go. I will install a pyrometer this next week.

I replaced my passenger side window and in the process I broke one of the retainer clips. Anyone know where I can get some new ones?

I had some other things planned but a problem with my Kubota leaking hydraulic fluid from a gasket is going to have to take priority.

Big Mikes has those clips. Or that one auction site. I just replaced all of mine with the glass too. It's great to have nice new clear glass without years of grime and overspray all over it.

Glad to hear that. Bryce is a good guy. Too busy for his own good, but he has kids to feed. I've never seen a man work so hard.

That engine was an excellent runner. I hope you haven't let it sit without running for too long. Replacing hh o-rings isn't that fun.
