And yet another Texan joins the Forum! Are you northern boys scared yet?

BTW, if any of you haven't done so, why not get yourselves located on the map here?

hey guys thanks for the welcome... well my shop bill is up to 350 bux and yesterday the motor locked up. we worked onit a bit and when the plugs were pulled, gas came out of one of the cylinders... not a little bit of gas... a LOT of gas... went to take the gas cap off and PSSST.... it shoulded like someone opened a soda after shaking it... so i may have a faulty vent on the tank... also the carb started spitting gas out but we figured the floats were stuck and so we banged on it with a hammer... gonna make a few phone calls and see if i can find some toys for cheap... i'm thinkin 454???
