[T3] 1 month from yesterday!!!

[Keith Park]

I had the carbon brush contact disintegrate out of the cap 2/3 of the way up
Mt Washinton in New Hampshire and that killed it!  Tach was Twitching all
the way there so there was warning...  thank goodness you can work on the
square engine while IN the car because when your above tree line in
horizontal rain with a 60mph wind on a narrow dirt road you JUST want it to
RUN and a wad of aluminum from the engine cover will make It do just that!

need a  tuneup when I get back so gotta make sure everything is set properly
now  and that I have SPARES with me!





Sorry for the wake up call Keith, but those things hardly fail, so we kind  
of forget about them. I'm working on a list of spare parts to take too, and 
 those will be on the list. ;-) Yesterday was my wake up call. :O
