atleast this screw up aint my fault.
The tank that came with my B was a real mess when i got it, it was full of rust but it sure was solid. I eventually gave up on cleaning it out with nuts and bolts and decided it would just be easier to take it somewheres. I found a nearby radiator shop the next town over and they said theyde clean it out and seal it for me. When i went and picked it up and looked it over. It still had all its paint, and still had some rust and junk in the filler neck. I assumed theyde stick it in their tank and get everything down to the bare metal, but they musta done something else. I dont think a $20 can of red-kote is worth $80 to apply, but its my fault for not asking enough questions i guess.
The other day i went to try to start the C and get it in the garage so i could try to figure out the govenor, but it wouldnt start. Then i noticed the sediment bowl is full of dirt and rust and red stuff. As is probabally the brand new carb.
Nice work guys.
I now have to dig up my reciept and take it all the way back there. They sure dont look professional there. They diddnt show tax on the reciept and i asked the guy about it and he just kinda shrugged. I dont think theyre even a real buissness. Im out a most of a tank of gas, alot of time and alot of aggrivation. Hopefully i get my $100 back. an $80 profit sure must be nice for that. I thought about saying something there. I expected better, but they assured me it would work fine and wouldnt come out. Probabally wouldnt of if theyde bothered to clean the tank.
I still have a jug of gas that sat in the C's tank for 3-4 years. The rusty, old rotten gas looks better then the brand new stuff out of the B tank.
This sure sucks.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
