    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

No more 450 kits for now...

Sorry. Hate to use this forum to announce this, but this is where most people get my URL & so forth.

I have been unable to get a source for the most important O-ring in the 450 kit, so for now the kits are unavailable.

I'm looking at two old reliable sources to get a new supply, but it could take a month or more.

Hi Robert,

Thank you. I know the community appreciates your efforts. Keep up the great work.

All the best to you and yours,

Thanks for the heads up Robert, I'm right with mine but good to know for the other 450 guys who will be looking for some.

When you say the most important one, are you referring to the mixture screw?

No, it's the needle jet O-ring, which creates an interference fit to hold the jet in place. If it isn't exactly 3.1mm x 1.1mm, it's going to cause havoc. I've tried a few sizes that are extremely close, dimensionally, and the jet winds up either too tight or too loose.

Aaaah of course! The mixture screw could cope with some minor differences in that regard...
 
Well, the time estimate was pretty accurate. The kits are now back in stock.

YIPPIE!! I ordered from you and must say that it was a class act the entire process.
