Black Valves
What are the dates on the "BURNING MAN" thing??
Regards, Hank 90SP36 --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, Leroy Eckert > > Burning Man; sounds like a trip!! Speaking of trips; I am willing to bet that lots of folks there believe parts are working when they aren't, and believe parts aren't working when they are. Leave the parts changing to another day so the parts are installed correctly. Love those festivals and would like to hit Burning Man one day. > Leroy Eckert > 1990 WB-40 Smoke N Mirrors > Dahlonega, gA > Royale Conversion > > --- On Fri, 8/22/08, Kurt Horvath > From: Kurt Horvath > Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Re: Black Valves > To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com > Date: Friday, August 22, 2008, 1:00 AM > > > > > > > > > > > > You Rock On Greg! > > > > If you want the best gadget upgrade try FORWARD LOOKING INFRARED, > > F.L.I.R. > > > > Ya know it doesn't matter what you've got as long as it works. > > > > t Horvath > > 95 PT-42 WLWB > > 10AC > > > > --- In WanderlodgeForum@ yahoogroups. com, Greg Young > > wrote: > > > > > > I'm very happy with my nice old manual pull valves.
