I have this nice old house I bought. Was actually the original farmhouse for the farmland I already own. I was looking around and there is a modern PVC well at the top of the driveway. About ten feet away is a clump of tall grass. Digging around in there I find what looks like a white plastic rectangular thing which appears to be covering something up. Whatever it is covering projects out of the ground about a foot and has rocks piled all around it. I decided against monkeying around with it until I had more info. So the seller comes by to pick up his mail and I point to it and ask him what is under the white thing. He informs me that he hasn't a clue...never looked. The owner before him is unreachable. The PR from the estate that sold the house off the original farm is just as puzzled. No one seems to know what is under this square plastic cover...measures about 3x4 feet. Is this likely to be the original well? Place was homesteaded in the 1830's. Might be some interesting old coins down there! Or it could be like that movie...whatchacallit..."The Ring"? I just hate to think there is a 10-15' hole full of water under there. How the heck does someone own a house for three years and not get curious about such a thing?

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. 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
