I'm most happy to know that the problem was solved. THAT IS what we are all here for. To keep our cars running which requires problem solving. WHATEVER it takes.

Over the years i've known of too many classic vehicles and other collectibles that sooner of later became little more than mere dust collectors. Nearly always due to 'can't make it run', 'parts don't fit', 'can't get parts', 'wrong parts', 'just doesn't work' so on and soforth.

TO a great extent, what we are faced with is more or less an R&D project or something that more closely resembles custom or hand built vehicles. THis is also true of those selling parts and offering service. TIme and obsolescence always proves this out. As well as changing operating environments such as fuel, oil and other materials in general.

TESTING under operation is the final analysis of anything. Cooperation is required among everyone. Even the vendors and service suppliers are still learning and changing just like the owners.

WE ALL have to work together in this hobby. Otherwise the cars will wind up just setting. When that happens the vendors and suppliers will have to close their doors.

Witness GM.
