Fellas, the weather this weekend may be a little damp. Are we all in even if it rains? If its not a monsoon, I'm in.
 
With the weather reports we get around here, it will probably be 75 and sunny. I'm only going to worry if they call for nice weather.
 
I'll play "Darryl Woppler" and use my pinpoint radar of the Smokey point area to give you guys a real time status Saturday morning. :)
 
Looks like 30% chance of a few light showers.
I'm in if Wifey is doing OK from ankle Surgery Thurs afternoon.....

Heck, we BBQ in the rain, so "occasional sprinkle" is fair weather.
Numerous nice days since 1 May. Kind of a dry April too.

Got favorable comment on the exhaust tone on the Elky yesterday.
A few minutes later while entering N Fort through security, the guard was more about my Elky than my ID. This AM, saw a 70 "SS" Chevelle heading the other way. Blk, blk vinyl top, white SS stripes. Probable clone, no exhaust tone...

George,

I rejetted the carb yesterday and need to road test the car prior to this weekend. I'm thinking of driving it to work tomorrow (WED) and heading up to Godfathers in Spanaway to see if they have the cruise-in. Are you in with the Elky?
 
Mark,

Great talking to you again. Now clear on your jetting situation. Hope things work out on the roadtest. I'll likely head to GodFather's Spanaway WED.

I may pull RatVette out after work and try to tune out some strange running issues. Will likely drain the carb, remove the idle mixture screws, head in there with computer cleaner air can. Then I'll put her back together, reset the timing to 14*--16*. May also re-hook the vacuum advance....we'll see. With a lot of adv on the crank, the vacuum adv becomes less important.

After some gearhead play, I gotta get my Jeffrey Dahmer Signature Series electric chainsaw out. Get to cut the Fir Tree roots Junior and I exposed with excavation last PM.

George
