[Rhodes22-list] Motor report.

Bob,
Next time just send the carburetor to me. I don't have any idea how they  
managed to screw it up, it's a very simple device. The whole parts package 
for  the carb was less than fifty bucks with shipping.

Rummy,I had some guy do a rebuild on it and I think he screwed  the pooch.  
Never had a problem until he messed with it.  After  that, neither he nor 
another guy could get the pin to seat so I had to get a  new carb.  Never 
going back to that guy again...BK
