I agree 100% Spook. I"ve worked in a non union factory now for 31 years that has been sold two times and the last buyer eliminated our pension plan when a lot of us had over 25 years of seniority. We got screwed. Pension plan eliminated. Now there are a lot of worn out, bitter people trying to pound the concrete every day with no retirement. When you work in a production facility and listen to the extreme noise and breath the nasty chemical filled air for 30 years you"re usually ready to leave. Every joint in your body is pretty much worn out along with your brain. All these companies are doing is passing the retirement buck to the US Government in the form of massive amount of people filing for disability instead of retiring with dignity with a good pension plan. Most of the houses I pass on the way to work are older people at home enjoying a decent retirement around here. They are all retired teachers, state workers, county workers, government workers, GM, Ford, Motor Wheel, Federal Moguel, Melling Forging, Lear, Alma Products, Saylor Beal etc. These people all had defined pension plans because of a union and they all retire with dignity. I have never been a big union person because I never thought they were that important but in hindsight I can see that they were and are very important. A 401K is the biggest retirement lie ever brought down on the american people. Does anybody even know anybody that has ever retired using one??!!I don"t.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
