Was the LBW there? She's good for a point or two.

Sounds like another great meeting, the tradition continues.

And I'll buy each one of you guys a beer at the August Meeting, that's 1.2 free beers each.

And Donnie too, if he shows up. I think August is his birthday month.

Only the best OGTAs show up for a meeting two days after the Lake House meeting.

Nice work Dudes:

Holly
Greg the Younger
Kristy
Tommy
Crit

Sorry I couldn't make it. It's tough for me to make it out there unless I have that day off which is rare. I should be getting my car going fairly soon thanks to a generous offer from Crit. Hopefully I don't have any rats chewing on my wires. The electrical system already sucks on it. Haha.

Those FCs always have mouse problems with the electrical Zach, that's why they aren't so popular.

If we got you a decent FB or SA, you'd be making it to the meetings on a regular basis, just say when..

Keep the white FC you got, lots of emotional attachment, I understand. The leading direct fire ignition module and the 13B are worth something.

Maybe transplant it into the FB you just got.

Just saying.

Brett, you too.

Post pictures dudes.

The stock cradle is mounted to the chassis with rubber insulators, so you don't get that annoying fuel pump chatter like you do with aftermarket pumps mounted to the frame rail.
Which wire on the factory 85 FB12a fuel pump harness is the positive (+)? There are only two, one is black with a white stripe and the other is solid black.

Thanks -

The wiring diagram shows a blue wire with a white stripe for the positive and a black wire for the negative.

Maybe I am becoming color blind.

I used the wire with the white stripe as the positive and the other solid black wire for negative.

Thanks!

Mr. Chad, I got tons of questions for you. I'll check yours sales thread and raise you two.

Any chance of you hanging out at the Shrinking Quilt the evening of the 15th?

Mike, yes we will call you Ray.
Ray, don't try to sell Zach the SAs and FBs... Seems his FC is showing up to the meetings about as frequently as your FB lately. You two need to show up before the end of this year in them.
The five of us who showed up last meeting got $2 each from our trivia winnings from the June meeting.
Tommy did a good job with the 12A equivalent count and a pic for Ray.
Chad, let us know when you'll be here, so we all can get together.

I'm looking for replacement SA armrest caps. The little chrome thingies that hide the upper
attachment screw on an SA armrest. I think its specific to the GS model not sure. I know
DivinDriver has reproduced these but if I can source them used in great shape ...

It looks like this (its the chrome piece just below the door pull):

Very nice Carlos, I'll be doing the same on the 83. Got any secrets? Are those the stock lug bolts or the special ones for the LE wheels?
