Gee, Gary, Things have gone straight to HeII in a handbasket out there where you are, hasn't it? Here in Michigan, People are allowed to live anywhere they can afford. And we arent so arrogant as to think that city people have no business being in the country. We don't ask them to accept a one way ticket back to the city. we may have to educate them somewhat to rural life, but send them back to the city? I bet you dont feel you are trespassing on their turf when you go to town to buy groceries, furniture, refrigerators, cars, or just take in a movie. Our kids are also pretty smart here too, and if they don't learn anything in school, we wonder what kind of parenting they are getting. The last time I checked, The U.of M. and other Universities here in Michigan were graduating students in record numbers, and I doubt that they all came from Texas. By the way,have you tried to master a "Playstation" lately? Didn't think so. Also here in Michigan, farmers whether first generation, or 4th or 5th generation farmers who inherited their land have the right to sell any or all of their land at market value. We don't require anyone lt sit back and watch everyone else make a buck while we struggle for struggle sake. When did that change in Texas? We also have a farmers right to farm here which means if we kick up a little dust, slow down traffic on the roads, create a few offensive odors, or otherwise inconvenience a few libs who dont quite get it, we simply let them do the worrying and carping. Why make their problem our problem. Are you telling us that Texans need help in understanding that? I'm sure that Texans in general see things in more of a positive light than you have indicated here, but you have managed to convince me that the answer to the question of the original post is a resounding yes.

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. 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
