Hey! Who says he's my better half?  Huh  Cheesy

John's always happy to chat about things like that. While the kit and methodology for your application is different to ours some of the issues were the same and having someone to help steer you in the right direction can really help - and while cyberspace is great, nothing beats a good talk.

Now don't play with yours as much as John has with his!  Roll Eyes Wink It is a good feeling though!  Grin

hey fatboy, what are the plans with the tank, this is what held me back from lpg although lpg would work pretty good with the blower with its higher octane.

I'm exited by new things (new to me at least)
That column cable looks good, I may do the same.
And the gas is real trick too!! Cool
